Trust Board Membership
Trustees are appointed or elected as permitted by the Articles of Association. Each trustee has a four year term of office which may be extended for a further term of four years. Up to ten trustees can be appointed by the members. Further 'Co-opted' trustees may be appointed by the trust board. Two trustees are elected by school parents.
