All RET schools are now academies but, before opening, were free schools i.e. parent/community proposed academies. The first Local Governors of our schools were typically individuals who had worked hard to get their school opened (on their ‘Steering Committees’) and many then gave years of service as Governors. Without their dedication, hard work and commitment our schools would not have existed nor been the successful thriving communities that they are today.
