Structure and Remit

The Role of the Academy Monitoring Committee is strategic in nature. The Department for Education’s Governance Handbook identifies three core functions being:

  • Ensuring clarity of vision, ethos and strategic decision.
  • Holding executive leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils, the effective and efficient performance management of staff; and
  • Overseeing the financial performance of the organisation and making sure its money is well spent.

Members of the AMC are appointed based on their skills in order to contribute to effective governance and the success of the Academy.

Committee members form the Academy Monitoring Committee for each Academy. The AMC is a committee of the Trust and oversee the functions of Academies as delegated to them by the Board of Directors. The AMC is quorate when 51% of the membership is present. The AMC has five key functions.

  1. Ensuring the Academy is working to its ethos within the Mission and Values of the UOLAT.
