Governing Body

Victoria Primary School is part of Northern Star Academies Trust which is overseen by a Board of Trustees to ensure it is operating in accordance with its goals and legal obligations. Each academy within Northern Star has a local governing body which supports the Board of Trustees to lead the academy. 

Our governors volunteer their time, skills and expertise to help make sure our school is working at its best for our students. 

Some of the functions of our local governing body are: 

• helping the senior leadership team to set high standards and plan for the school´s future;

• monitoring the effectiveness of the school’s provision;

• the management of risks;

• acting as a critical friend to the Headteacher and senior leadership team, offering strategic support and advice;

• helping the school respond to the needs of parents and the community;

• helping make the school be open and accountable to the public for what it does;

• working with the school on planning and developing policies and keeping the school provision under review; and

• exercising the responsibilities and powers delegated to it by the Trustees in partnership with the Headteacher and staff.
