Home > About Us  > Governance > Local Advisory Board

Each school within the Primary Advantage Federation has a Local Advisory Board that meets meets regularly to support the Headteacher and Executive Principal in making strategic decisions that will improve outcomes for pupils. The Local Advisory Board meet regularly to support and challenge the school to continue to provide children with a high quality education.

They look at outcomes for all pupils across our schools and look at how well our children are doing compared to children nationally. They also receive finance reports, health and safety reports, curriculum reports and help the school to make decisions that will benefit our school community. Our Local Advisory Boards are made up of Staff, Parent and Community Members.
