Passmores Academy

Improving upon our best

Governing Body

Passmores has a highly active and supportive governing body. They work constantly to support the school in its drive for continuous improvement and the delivery of the best possible education to our community. 

Passmores Academy is part of the Passmores Cooperative Learning Community, the educational trust which also has responsibility for three local primary schools: Potter Street Academy, Purford Green Primary and the Downs Primary School. Overall responsibility for governance sits with the PCLC Trust Board, while the day-to-day governance of Passmores is devolved to the Passmores Local Governing Body.
