Governance
Board of Governance at INMAT
INMAT is governed by a board made up of trustees who are also known as non-executive directors. Trustees are appointed by the Members of the trust or are co-opted onto the board. They have a wide variety of skills and experience and work to ensure children are always put first, in line with our vision and values.

What Do Governors Do?
Governors are people over the age of 18, with a passion for education who have a connection to the school and who want to make a positive contribution to the pupil experience. They work as a team to provide strategic leadership, hold the school to account for its educational performance, and ensure financial resources are used effectively. Their core responsibilities include:
-
Setting the vision, ethos, and strategic direction of the school
-
Supporting and challenging school leaders to drive improvement
-
Overseeing financial performance and ensuring best value
-
Ensuring compliance with statutory responsibilities and safeguarding
Governors do not get involved in the day-to-day running of the school—that is the job of the Headteacher and staff. Instead, they operate at a strategic level.
