The City of London Academy is looking for a Clerk to the Governors to join the local board members whose main responsibility will be to support the governance of the 3 schools in the Southwark.

The role also involves ensuring smooth communication between the Academy and the Trust. You will also be responsible for managing panels at all schools in relation to complaints and student discipline.
