Governance

Accountability for achieving the key performance indicators that drive the place-based improvement plan rests with all of those collectively involved in educating Plymouth’s children but also with those who hold key roles in leading and implementing the plan.

Plymouth’s Place-based Partnership Structures show the relationships between the city’s key strategic education groups and the governance structure that helps maintain the plan’s strategic focus and its coherence.
