Academy Council

As part of the Blessed Christopher Wharton Academy Trust the role of the Academy Council, which was previously known as the Governing Body, is both strategic and supportive. Ms Delany and her staff are responsible for the operational running of the school whilst the Academy Council have an overview in monitoring and evaluating the work and progress of the school. We meet each half term to review the work of the school and to plan for the future.
