Governance
On 1st February 2017 Barling Magna Primary School became a Primary Academy, joining Great Wakering Primary Academy as one of the two schools in The Brickfields Multi Academy Trust. Governance is now undertaken by a board of trustees. Their role is similar to that of governors in that they have three core functions:
- Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction;
- Holding executive leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils, and the performance management of staff; and
- Overseeing the financial performance of the organisation and making sure its money is well spent.
