Notes on the Grimsby Town Federation

School Federations have a legal status defined in the Education Act (2002). They may take different forms.

The Grimsby Town Learning Federation (GTLF) will comprise four 21st century distinctive centres each with their own headteachers and governing body.

Each governing body will elect an equal number of members to sit on a supra-governing body who will be given powers agreed in common across the ‘schools’ governing bodies.

The ambition of this federation supra-level governing body will be to secure the highest levels of student achievement across the four schools. They will be accountable for setting and delivering challenging student performance targets at federation level.

Other aspects of work they may take responsibility for include:

  • staff development
  • recruitment and retention of staff
  • relationships with primary schools
  • aspects of common time-tabling and curriculum planning
  • shared staff deployment
  • quality assurance
  • procurement of goods and services
  • monitoring and advising on admissions
  • lobbying on matters of common interest
  • strategic planning
  • community relationships, use of resources
  • full-service provisions

A federation management group will include the headteachers of each of the four constituent learning centres.
