Governing Body / Academy Committee

STEP Governance 

The name STEP, an acronym, reflects the aspirational nature of the organisation - Striving Together for Excellence in Partnership. Inspired by the commitment to improve children’s life chances, STEP Academies work together to provide high quality learning  experiences for all their pupils. 

Benedict Academy Committee  

“STEP First” is the notion that, first and foremost, everyone is committed to being part of  The STEP Academy Trust. All governors must be fully aligned to the Trust’s Mission and  Vision. Although serving one or more particular Academies, governors are members of the wider STEP team.

Chair of Governors: Sharon Ferns
