Primary and Secondary Boards

Primary Board

The Primary Board is the county-wide strategic body which sets the overall vision and priorities for improvement within the primary system and links to the Secondary Board. The Board serves all East Sussex Early Years providers and primaries including local authority schools, stand-alone academies and schools within multi-academy trusts. The Board holds an overview of the quality of education provided by schools and holds the LA, EIPs and ESLCN to account for the impact of their support to schools.

Further information about the work and membership of the Primary Board can be found on the Primary Board website.
