Members
The members are akin to the shareholders of a company. They have ultimate control over the academy trust, with the ability to appoint some of the trustees and the right to amend the trust’s articles of association.
Trustees
The Board of Trustees is the body that oversees the running of Wade Deacon Trust, they meet at least twice each term and are supported in its work by the Company Secretary. The trustees are responsible for the same three core governance functions performed by the governing body in a maintained school: setting the direction, holding the principal/headteacher to account and ensuring financial probity. As charity trustees, they must also ensure that they are complying with charity law requirements.
