Interested in becoming an AAB Member? 

Over the course of the academic year the membership of the AAB has changed and the time is now right to invite more parents or carers to join the AAB. 

If you are interested in becoming a member of the AAB, there are two forms that need to be completed. These forms are available to download from the links below. 

The first form is a Governance Nomination Form which asks you to say, using no more than 200 words, why you would like to become an AAB member. The second form is an AAB Member Criteria form which asks a number of questions required by law about your eligibility to be a member of the AAB. 

Completed forms should be emailed to the Principal’s PA at info@theallsaints.net  In the event that there are more nominations than available places, a parent ballot will be held. 

We hope that you will consider becoming a member of Rossington All Saints Academy Advisory Body at this exciting stage in the Academy’s development.
