Governance 

Luton Sixth Form College’s Governing Body determines the educational mission of the College, its strategic direction, oversees its financial performance and safeguards its assets.

It does this through a committee structure in which it meets with the College’s senior management to determine and monitor the College’s performance and planning.

Luton Sixth Form College's Corporation meets in full around six times a year. In addition to this we have four sub-committees – Audit, Finance & General Purpose, Search & Governance and Remuneration – which meet throughout the year.

Our Governance is guided by The Seven Principles of Public Life (Nolan Principles)

• Selflessness
• Integrity
• Objectivity
• Accountability
• Openness
• Honesty
• Leadership

And the AoC's Further Education Code of Good Governance principles:

1. Determination of aims and strategic oversight
2. Responsibility and accountability
3. Leadership and integrity
4. Collaboration and stakeholder engagement
5. Regulatory compliance
6. Board and organisational effectiveness

Our Governors are volunteers and often have significant professional, business or community experience, which is called on to inform the Governing Body’s collective decision-making. The day-to-day governance of the College is managed by the Head of Governance and Data Protection, whose autonomy from the management structure of the rest of the College assures their independence.

Under the terms of the Further & Higher Education Act 1992, the most senior body in a Further Education college is its Governing Body.
