Policy Making Process
The Local Authority (Cambridgeshire County Council) and the Government are responsible for updating and issuing some of the policies which are adopted at Spring Common Academy.
School-based policies are drawn up by Spring Common Academy's Senior Leadership Team, and will go through a staff and Trustee consultation process. Advice is also sought from our Human Resources company - EPM, and Unions where applicable.
When the consultation process is complete and agreements received, the policies will be ratified by the board of Trustees before being issued and implemented.
