Landau Forte Charitable Trust has a clear governance structure in place overseen by a Board of Trustees. Each Academy has its own Education Advisory Committee (see below) with the authority to create additional subcommittees for the discharge of their responsibilities.
The membership of the Board of Trustees and Education Advisory Committees is clearly defined in the Trust’s Articles of Association, which are publicly available on the Trust’s website.

We are looking for experienced individuals to volunteer their time, expertise and enthusiasm to support our academies as members of our Education Advisory Committee. Expressions of interest are welcomed and should be directed to [email protected]

Education Advisory Committee
Chair
Hello, I am Simon Rowley. I have lived with my family in the Amington area for the last 23 years and all my 3 children have been through one or more of the Landau Forte schools in Tamworth. I have been supporting as a Governor since Amington school changed from Woodhouse to the current Academy and I support the other LF schools in Tamworth also. Professionally, I have worked for the Toyota car company for the past 28 years covering a number of roles and currently I am part of their European Operations Management Development team

My links to QEMS go back to when I was a Student at the |School and currently my own two children are educated there. I have been a Secondary School Teacher since 20021 and I am currently a Faculty Leader at a local School.

My name is Weathered Marangoh. I work in the Construction Sector as a Quantity Surveyor having studied Quantity Surveying and Consultancy at Kingston University in London. Previously, my career was in the iron and steel industries which I joined after completing my studies back then, at my native country, Zimbabwe. In 1995, I migrated to Johannesburg, South Africa where I continued to work iron and steel industries, before relocating to the UK in 2002.
I enjoy fixing things in the house and tending to the garden in spare time. As a family, we attend a local church and travel around on holidays. My family and I have lived in Tamworth since early 2019.
Governor
My name is Nicholas Warren-Brownhill and I have two children who attend Landau Forte QEMS, in years 7 and 10. As a family we chose QEMS as both my wife and I agreed with the School's vision and values. I feel every child deserves access to a stimulating and enjoyable way of learning, taught in a way that is suited to their individual needs, thus allowing them to reach their full potential and I believe this is achieved at Landau Forte QEMS.
I currently work full time for an international company as an Operations and Maintenance Manager. My role covers various tasks and challenges including HR, financial data and high level Health and Safety, alongside leading day to day operational and maintenance duties. I enjoy both watching and playing sports, including football and basketball. I also hold my level one basketball coaching certificate.
I am confident that my experiences through work will assist me in helping the school maintain it's high standards.
