Introducing Inkberrow Primary School Governing Body

We are an active Board of Governors who support Inkberrow Primary School in a variety of ways. Overall, we seek to be a ‘critical friend’, so as to ensure that our local community school is supported and challenged in its vital task of educating and preparing children for life in 21st century society. Each year we produce an Annual Report summarising the activities that have been undertaken, and our latest report (for the academic year 2019/20) is available here for your information.

On the 1st August 2017 Inkberrow First School became a Founder Member of the Avonreach Academy Trust (AAT), along with Cherry Orchard First School, Norton Juxta Kempsey First School, and Pershore High School. On the 1st September 2019 all 3 AAT First Schools converted to Primary Schools. The AAT Scheme of Delegation, which details the governance arrangements that apply for the Trust and its academies, is available here for your information.
