In addition to this each LGB is charged with:

• Monitoring the school's standards (including pupils wider outcomes)
• Being a link between the local and parish community and the academy trusts board of directors
• Overseeing behaviour and attendance matters including dealing with pupils disciplinary matters 
• Managing admissions and complaints from parents

The scheme of delegation provides greater detail about responsibilities of the LGB.
