The Trust Board consists of up to 12 directors (also known as trustees) from a variety of employment backgrounds. We work as a team with the executive headteacher and headteachers for the benefit of all the pupils at both Aston Manor Academy and Chilwell Croft Academies. 

Board members are all volunteers and have diverse backgrounds, including education, safety, transport, information technology and auditing.
