Local Committee
Welcome from the Chair of the Local Committee
On behalf of all the members of the Local Committee of Puttenham Church of England Infant School (Puttenham), I would like to extend a warm welcome and take this opportunity to explain to you how we operate.
In May 2024 Puttenham joined the Good Shepherd Trust, which is a multi-academy trust. This resulted in our existing governing body converting to a local committee of the Good Shepherd Trust. As a local committee, we are responsible for:
- Establishing the strategic direction
- Ensuring accountability
- Overseeing compliance
- Ensuring risks to the organisation are managed
Our local committee consists of staff; parents and other local figures, who each bring with them a variety of expertise and experiences. We meet regularly throughout the year.
We along with the Good Shepherd Trust are all committed to ensuring that Puttenham school offers all children a wonderful start to their educational journey.
