Governance
Governors work together to provide an independent oversight of the management and operation of the Academy, with the aim of improving the quality of the education provided, raising standards and making decisions in the best interests of the Academy’s pupils, staff and wider community.
The Governing Body does not run the Academy or become involved with daily management; this is the job of the Principal and the leadership team. Governors help shape the aims and aspirations of the Academy, bringing a range of perspectives to all issues.
There are a number of key aspects to the work of the Governing Body. They set policies, establish the Academy development plan, ensure that public funds are spent appropriately and effectively, ensure statutory duties are complied with and provide rigorous accountability.
All Governors are volunteers who meet as a Full Governing Body at least four times a year.
The Governing Body of The Flitch Green Academy is comprised of:
Co-Chairs of Governors: Emma Goodings and Jon Shakallis
Vice Chair of Governors: Laurence Miles
Parent Governors:
Emma Goodings
Laurence Miles
Sarah Rider
Jenny Scarpenter

Admissions Policy for Entry September 2023
Joining Mid-Year
Mid-year applications are any application for a school place made to a year group apart from Reception. All mid-year applications should be made directly to the Academy, using the mid-year application form below:
For applications into existing year groups, a place will be offered when the number of pupils in the relevant year group is below the published admission number for that year group.
Are you within our priority catchment area?
If you are unsure, please click here and input your address.
Admissions Criteria:
1: Looked After Children and previously looked after children (as defined in the Primary Education in Essex 2022/2023 booklet).
2: Children living in the priority admissions area with a sibling attending the academy
3: Children (natural or adopted) who can prove they have a parent working at the academy
4: Other children living in the priority admissions area
5: Children living outside the priority admissions area with a sibling attending the school
6: Remaining applications
In the event of oversubscription within any of the above criteria, priority will be determined by straight line distance from home to school, those living closest being given the highest priority. Straight line distances are calculated by the LA as described on page 11 of the Primary Education in Essex 2014/2015 booklet.
Exceptional medical circumstances (supported by medical evidence) may override the above (other than criterion 1) if, in the view of the Governing Body, The Flitch Green Academy is the only local school that can meet the child’s needs.
