A Local Governing Board (LGB) within SHINE Academies is local to the school and community it serves. LGBs provide provides and scrutiny to the school leadership and as such oversees the governance of the school. They have some delegated powers and responsibilities from the Board of Trustees and these can be found in a document called the Scheme of Delegation.
Key guidance for Local Governing Boards is provided by the DfE in the Academy Governance Guide.
