Academies are independent, state-funded schools, which receive their funding directly from central government, rather than through a local authority.
The day-to-day running of the school is with the head teacher, but they are overseen by individual charitable bodies called academy trusts.
At Eppleton Academy, we are part of Eppleton Academy Trust which has a board consisting of five members. These members determine the ethos and purpose of the Trust and the way it will be governed - this is set out in the Articles of Association which you can access via the below document.
