Sheila Loy, Paul Dick and Nick Cornish were the founding Members of the Newbury Academy Trust. They have subsequently appointed Lynne Ellis as a Member.
The Members are the only body that can change the Articles of Association (subject to DfE approval). They appoint some of the Directors and have the right to remove them. The role of Members is ‘eyes on, hands off’ and there is a clear distinction between their role and that of the Trustees.
