Forms of Federation and Collaboration
·
For Catholic schools operating within ‘Informal/Loose Collaborations’:
Where each school has its own governing body but colleagues share good practice, work together informally and
meet together on an ad-hoc basis
·
For Catholic schools operating within a ‘Soft Federation’: Where each school has
its own governing body, the federation however has a joint governance / strategic committee but without delegated powers
·
For Catholic Schools in a ‘Soft Governance Federation’: Where each school has
its own governing body, but the federation has a joint governance / strategic committee with delegated powers
·
For Catholic Schools in a Hard Governance Federation: Where there’s a single governing body shared by each or all schools in the Federation
· For Catholic schools in the four north-eastern dioceses and beyond
that are considering collaboration and for colleagues who would like to share our experiences
