Governance

Introduction from the chair

IPAT is a very special place to work and learn. We aim to inspire all to flourish and succeed to ensure all our pupils do the very best to learn and progress in a nurturing environment.

At both our board of Trustees and at our local governing bodies, we work hard to ensure that all our IPAT schools deliver a high-quality education for all our pupils.

We fully understand the importance of our responsibility to set and champion the Trust’s vision, ethos and strategy. We focus equally on monitoring, challenging and celebrating how the school’s leadership uses these objectives to create a learning environment that allows pupils to thrive and prepares them for the future.

Graham Read, Chair of Trustees.
