Welcome to Axminster Community Primary Academy
We are very pleased to welcome you to the governors’ page of Axminster Primary Academy website.
Whilst the school operates under the umbrella of Acorn Multi Academy Trust and its Board of Directors, we retain our own Local Governing Body (LGB) and through this we work hard to preserve the individual character of our school.
Within the framework of our Terms of Reference and the Trust Board Scheme of Delegation, governors work as a team with children, parents, staff and the community to ensure the best outcomes for pupils. We are constantly striving to improve our own skills to strengthen the leadership of the school in order to fulfil these aims and obligations.
These aims are enhanced by the continued support and challenge of our Chief Executive Officer of the Trust (CEO), Andrea Rice, and the increased management and teaching expertise across the 6 schools of the Trust. As staff develop and share skills and knowledge together the curriculum and the extra-curricular opportunities for all the children will be extended.
The Governing Body is delighted with the way the children and staff have started the new school year with such vigour and determination. The tone being set by a very smart looking year six is very positive. We are pleased with the way experienced staff have taken up new or changed responsibilities and new staff have arrived with energy and fresh ideas. Ross Minton, our headteacher has a clear vision about how to continue to raise the quality of provision in the school.
We look forward to a successful year.
Lin Coley
Co-chair of Governors, Axminster Community Primary Academy, Stoney Lane, Axminster, Devon. EX13 5BU.
