ADO River Valley - Here at ADO River Valley, Our Future Is Helping Your Future
Although not a constitutional requirement of a community interest company, ADO has always sought the expertise and guidance of our management committee to ensure governance and the development of our company complies to the ethical standards and the ethos we strive for. The committee has grown in recent years and is now a very experienced team of professionals across many disciplines and career paths. They are all fully onboard with our aims and objectives and have contributed immensely with the support we require for a growing education provider.

Meetings

The management committee meet at least four times per year remotely, unless an extraordinary meeting is required. They are not though a 'tick-box' committee. They have all genuinely been a part of our growth in recent years, so are all available individually as well as part of a group, to provide guidance, support and consultancy. The management committee often have visits on site too, to ensure they see our ethical practices first hand.

Management Committee

The committee consists of one ADO Director, one ADO Executive Director (non-salaried), and six independent individuals.
The two members below are in senior positions within ADO River Valley, with more information on them that can be found on our meet the team page :
