Local Governing Board

 

Redfield Educate Together has a Local Governing Board (LGB) comprised of staff, parents, local residents, and co-opted governors, generously giving up their time and expertise to help develop and shape the school for the community it works within. The LGB also acts as a line of communication between the school and the Trust Board.
