Each school within our federation has a Local Advisory Board which meets termly to support the Headteacher and Executive Principal to make strategic decisions to improve outcomes for our pupils. The Local Advisory Board supports and challenges the school to continue to provide a high quality education for all pupils. They do this by looking at outcomes for pupils compared to children nationally, analysing finance, health and safety, curriculum and other reports and helping the school to make decisions which will benefit the school community. Our Local Advisory Board is made up of staff, parent, clergy and community members.
We are seeking a parent representative for our Local Advisory Board. Do you have an interest in joining our Local Advisory Board as a parent representative? If so, please email admin@holytrinity.hackney.sch.uk to express your interest.
If you would like to be added to the PTA volunteering team you can pick up forms from the school office. Even if you can give limited support it still helps to get involved!
