Our Trustees and Directors

Bengeworth Multi-Academy Trust was formed from 1st February 2018.

Before then it was a stand alone Academy called Bengeworth CE Academy which converted from a LA maintained school on 1st June 2014.

It has now been running for over seven years and is an Exempt Charity with four Trustees. The ESFA call these the Members of the Trust.

Below the Trustees there is a Board of seven Directors who are responsible for the Multi-Academy Trust. The Directors run the company business and make the strategic decisions for the future direction of the Multi-Academy Trust.

The MAT Board has set up a MAT Finance and Audit Committee and various other statutory committees which report back directly to the Board each half term.

Bengeworth Multi-Academy Trust currently runs two Academies:

BENGEWORTH CE ACADEMY

BRETFORTON VILLAGE SCHOOL

Each Academy within the Trust has a local School Governing Body which is responsible for the everyday management of the school and reports back to the Board of Directors.

Both Academies work very closely together and help each other, for the benefit of all the children. They work closely with the Senior Leadership Team and the Directors, sharing the same vision and values. Our Trust is about aligning the schools and sharing expertise to get the very best outcomes for the pupils in our care. Each school is individual and still has its own identity in the local community.

Please see the next Tab for details of the local School Governors for Bengeworth CE Academy.

The company changed name from 1st February 2018 from Bengeworth CE Academy to Bengeworth Mutli-Academy Trust. At that point the Board was reduced from 11 to 7 Directors.

There have been no changes since and all seven Directors remain in position, giving a strong and stable Board for our Multi-Academy Trust, with a very good range of knowledge, backgrounds and a wealth of school experience. They are dedicated, supportive and forward-thinking and have worked (voluntarily) for the schools and the Trust for many years between them.
