Our Governance
The Hayesbrook School Governance
The Academy Council is the foundation stone of the system of governance operating across Brook Learning Trust and has replaced the Local Governing Body. All three academies in the Trust have Academy Councils and councillors’ advocacy and monitoring roles are replicated across each.

Each councillor role listed above has its own remit. A brief description of each role is included in the document published below which is available for you to download.
Councillors also monitor progress made in respect of the key priorities identified in the Academy Improvement Plan. The priorities are summarised as follows:
|
Core Priority 1: |
Ensure exceptional leadership and management, at all levels of the organisation, which directly impacts on standards, quality of provision and the continued growth and development of the academy and its people. |
| Core Priority 2: |
Embed an inspirational curriculum experience which fully ensures students are rich in knowledge, proficient in skill and offers them the chance to engage in a full range of exciting opportunity and motivating experiences and gives them the cultural capital needed for their future. |
| Core Priority 3: |
Increase student attainment across the key stage 4 ability range and accelerate the rate of progress for all groups in key stage 3. |
