Governing Body

Welcome to our Governor section

​

As of 1st September 2024, New Invention Learning Academy became part of the Primary Learning Trust, a Multi-Academy Trust (MAT), after transitioning from its previous status as a maintained school to an Academy.

​

New Invention Learning Academy has its own Local Governing Body (LGB), which plays a vital role in ensuring robust governance for the school. The LGB works closely with the School Leadership Team, focusing on Curriculum, Children, and Community and supporting the Board of Trustees' strategic direction. The governors of the LGB are committed to maintaining high educational standards, safeguarding, and promoting the well-being of all pupils.

​

Our Governors are dedicated to upholding the vision and values of New Invention Learning Academy, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to thrive.

New Invention Learning Academy is a school rich in tradition, with a strong moral foundation and a reputation for delivering high-quality education. At the heart of everything we do is our commitment to the children we serve.

​

In addition, an Admissions Panel is convened when required, along with any Appeals Panels, through the make-up of the Trustees.
