Cranford, as a National Support School, and its Executive Head Teacher, as a National Leader of Education, have provided regular support to other schools and the academy continues to act as a hub for best practice, research and innovation.

Cranford Community College led its Teaching School Alliance (TSA) until 31 August 2021. The academy has always supplemented the TSA grant income from its own resources to support activity that it would wish to pursue regardless of Teaching School Status.

The Academy Trust is currently considering updating its Funding Agreement and Articles of Association (2010 version) with the ESFA / Secretary of State in 2024/25 and is also considering its options in terms of MAT developments so there may be some resulting structural changes to the ATB (Members and Trustees) and eligibility once either of these new frameworks are agreed and ratified. Key decisions are envisaged during 2023/24. Elections for new staff and new parent trustees, as appropriate, will then be held in accordance with the new articles and funding agreement.

Organisational Structure of the Academy Trust 

 (Next update on 6 November 2023)

The Academy Trust operate strategically and hold the Executive Head Teacher, who is also the Accounting Officer, to account for the running of the academy and its related functions and the board, at least annually, comprehensively, and formally review the thresholds of responsibility and delegation between the Academy Trust and the Executive Head Teacher.

The Executive Head Teacher (or his delegates) is/are responsible for all operational matters and the ‘day to day’ running of the academy, overseen by the Academy Trust acting as ‘critical friend’ and appraising his performance. The Executive Head Teacher is responsible for policy and decision making in so far as it has not been made by the trust and is accountable to / reports to the Chair and the trust board. 

Normally, there is an annual / biennial cycle of appraisal linked to performance pay for all staff, except the Executive Head Teacher whose performance is rated but whose pay is currently frozen by mutual agreement and hence not currently subject to either inflationary or performance progression.

The Academy Trust has responsibility for monitoring its own performance and for its own training. It reports through the Annual General Meeting and is subject to scrutiny by the regulators, including external auditors. The trust is experienced and has well established protocols for the operation of the Academy Trust, a clear structure, written terms of reference and a regular cycle of meetings and activities.

In 2022-23, the Academy Trust has been organised as follows:

  • Full Academy Trust (Chair: Mrs Jenny Sandra Lewis, JLE)
  • Regular (normally fortnightly, sometimes monthly) Chair Meetings with the Executive Head Teacher / Accounting Officer
  • Audit, Compliance and Risk Committee (Chair: Ms Jennie Elizabeth Lewis) (JLS/TVI)
  • Finance and Monitoring Committee (Chair: Mrs Jenny Sandra Lewis) (JLE/BLO)
  • Safeguarding, Wellbeing & Health and Safety Committee (Chair: Mrs Jenny Sandra Lewis) (JLE/BLO/JLS/SHA)

 

  • Admissions Panel (Chair: Ms Jennie Elizabeth Lewis) (JLS/BLO)
  • Appeals & Complaints Committee (Any 3 eligible and trained governors, Chair varies)
  • Pupil Discipline Committee (Any 3 eligible and trained governors, Chair varies, staff governors are eligible)
  • Staff Dismissal Committee (Any 3 eligible and trained governors, Chair varies, staff governors ineligible)
  • Pay & Performance Management Committee (Chair: Mrs Jenny Sandra Lewis) (JLE, JLS, TVI = Review Trustee)
  • Collaboration Committee - 2 Trustees (voting) and the Accounting Officer (non-voting). Chair rotates 6 monthly with other organisation(s) (JLE/TVI + KPR) - Not currently in session
     

Please note that Mrs Jenny Sandra Lewis (JLE) and Ms Jennie Elizabeth Lewis (JLS) are not related or connected other than both being trustees. 

Some alternative arrangements operated in recent years to maximise Covid safety including absorbing the work of most committees into the full ATB where appropriate, minimising face to face meetings, using videoconferencing and incorporating electronic meetings and decisions, using communications technologies where face to face meetings have not been possible.  

The academy is subject to external review, scrutiny, and validation through a variety of inspections and audits by a range of agencies including Responsible Officer visits, Audit, the Education and Skills Funding Agency, the Health and Safety Executive, etc. and reports by these agencies are shared with the Academy Trust and published. The academy (Executive Head Teacher/Academy Trust) also undertakes a variety of evaluations and satisfaction surveys and monitors key performance indicators. The academy also benchmarks and improves its performance through involvement and leadership of networks of schools and school improvement partnerships.

The trust will host a Community Conference for stakeholders to contribute to the vision and direction of the academy in summer 2025, postponed from summer 2020 due to the pandemic. 

The Executive Head Teacher normally reports to the Academy Trust regularly through Full Academy Trust meetings and committees and meets and communicates regularly with the Chair between Academy Trust meetings and meets on average fortnightly in term time for monitoring of academy performance by the Chair. The Academy Trust is also kept involved through scrutiny of data and benchmarking information, publications, the academy website and its associated social media and invitations to / attendance events, activities and trustee training.

The Academy Trust monitors the performance of the academy through a variety of means including through its committee and meetings structure, through probing and questioning, through involvement with the academy and through activities such as regular Health and Safety inspections and data monitoring.

The academy trust board has authorised the Chair, when she deems it necessary, to use her powers to deal with urgent needs, reporting any significant use to the Academy Trust as appropriate afterwards through the agenda.

The Executive Head Teacher and Academy Trust report to parents, pupils and the community through a variety of means including the academy website, reports, letters and magazines, text messaging, school email, school phones, assemblies, the academy’s Virtual Leaning Environment (MSTeams), SchoolCloud, etc.

The Academy Trust agrees the broad staffing structure at least annually as part of the approval of the budget and delegates to the Executive Head Teacher the flexibility to take opportunities for improvement as they arise or when needs change in the year within the envelope of the agreed annual budget total.

The board also agrees any legal agreements which could be used for any related party transactions and larger contracts such as ground maintenance.
