Wave Multi Academy Trust is committed to enabling pupils to achieve in all areas. A vital part of ensuring this is outstanding governance, and as such we are committed as a Trust to ensuring that the whole is stronger than the sum of the parts.
We do this by working collaboratively across the Trust and ensuring that we are held, and hold ourselves accountable to a very high standard. The structures and functions of governance are vital in ensuring that pupils are kept safe and make progress both academically, socially and emotionally and that the Trust provides good value for money.
The Trust board is made up of an independent Chair, a school representative, and Trustees with background experience of business, HR, legal and safeguarding, the CEO of Wave and a parent representative.
Wave Monitoring Hubs
Wave has established six Monitoring Hubs acting across Devon and Cornwall:
- Cornwall West: Nine Maidens Academy, Penwith Academy
- Cornwall East: Caradon Academy, North Cornwall Academy, Restormel Academy
- Devon: River Dart Academy, Stansfield Academy, The Shoreline Academy
- Medical Cornwall: CHES Academy, Sowenna
- Medical Devon: Torlands Academy
- Special: Glendinning Academy
The Monitoring Hubs are comprised of volunteers, known as Representatives, from partner organisations alongside Senior Trust Leaders. Each of the Monitoring Hubs is also ‘adopted’ by at least one Trustee.
The purpose of the Monitoring Hubs is to provide support and challenge at a local level, specifically in regard to quality of education, safeguarding and to monitor key performance indicators whilst acting as a critical friend to the Principals/Heads of School.
The Monitoring Hubs report directly to the Board of Trustees and the Quality, Safeguarding & Standards Committee. They act strategically to ensure that pupils receive a high quality of education in a safe and secure environment.
