Landau Forte Charitable Trust has a clear governance structure in place overseen by a Board of Trustees. Each Academy has its own Education Advisory Committee (see below) with the authority to create additional subcommittees for the discharge of their responsibilities.
The membership of the Board of Trustees and Education Advisory Committee's is clearly defined in the Trust’s Articles of Association, which are publicly available on the Trust’s website.

Hello, I am Simon Rowley. I have lived with my family in the Amington area for the last 23 years and all my 3 children have been through one or more of the Landau Forte schools in Tamworth. I have been supporting as a Governor since Amington school changed from Woodhouse to the current Academy and I support the other LF schools in Tamworth also. Professionally, I have worked for the Toyota car company for the past 28 years covering a number of roles and currently I am part of their European Operations Management Development team.
