Governance

Governance provides a clear vertical, formal line of accountability from Executive Team to SWIFT Trust Board which is itself accountable to the Trustees of Colyton and Kingsbridge and the DfE. In recognition of the scale and reach of SWIFT and the centrality of partners to its delivery, there is a clear horizontal line of accountability between the Executive Team and Partners through the SWIFT Partnership Group.
