Members
The members of an academy trust are the guardians of the governance of the trust. The members are responsible for making sure that the trust acts within its constitutional powers.
They have the right to amend the Articles of Association and they are responsible for agreeing appointments to the Board of Trustees. Members are similar to a company's shareholders - they sit above the board of trustees and have a largely hands-off role.
