Kettering Science Academy is part of the Brooke Weston Trust. Brooke Weston Trust is governed by the Board of Directors who are ultimately responsible for holding the Executive Team to account. At Brooke Weston Trust we place great significance of the importance of governance in raising school standards and ensuring effectiveness in the running of our academies.
The Board of Directors delegate responsibilities to specific committees in order to aid them in carrying out their function. For more information about Brooke Weston Trust governance, including information about the Funding Agreement, Articles of Association, Annual Account and Report etc. please click here.
Any parents or carers who wish to contact any of KSA's Governors should email Kayleigh Davis, PA to the Principal and clerk to the Governing Body, on kayleigh.davis@ketteringscienceacademy.org, marking whose attention their correspondence is for. Alternatively they can write to any of the Governors c/o the KSA address.
