Hob Moor Primary Academy is part of Ebor Academy Trust. The governance arrangements of the Trust can be found by clicking this link.
We have a committed, active governing body at Hob Moor Community Primary Academy who work closely with the Headteacher and the school.
This school has a local governing body (LGB) which is responsible for making day to day decisions on the running of the school. Its power is delegated from trustees of the main multi-academy trust board. It is important that Governors attend meetings and have a presence in school as and when required.
The LGB consist of members of the local community interested in education and no formal qualifications are required as full training is given. The headteacher is automatically a member of the LGB by nature of their position, but cannot be chair. Parents are welcome to join the LGB and when there are vacancies, we particularly welcome applicants with skills in managing budgets, legal work, human resources, running a business or any work connected with young people.
If you wish to contact the Chair of Governors please do so via the school on 01904 806655 or email admin.hmp@ebor.academy
You can also contact them through the school’s postal address:
