Oxlip Learning Partnership

Local Advisory Boards

Each school within the Trust has its own Local Board made up of skilled people.

The Local Advisory Boards are a committee of the main board of the Trust.  Each school has its own Local Advisory Board or joint Local Advisory Board.

The Local Boards ensure that standards of attainment and progress by the learners in our schools are high and in accordance with standards set by the Trustees.  They constructively support and challenge the Principal and staff, and monitor and evaluate the work of the school.

If you are interested in joining one of the Local Boards, please do make contact with the school as detailed below.
