Moorland Local Board
The Moorland Hub has recently been expanded to include Ilsington, Moretonhampstead and Widecombe-in-the-Moor academies with the former Newton and Teign Hub, Bearnes primary, Newton Abbot and Hennock academies. The two Hubs are currently coming to the end of a year working together to strengthen their support of the academies. The Moorland Hub clerk is Penny Young, she can be contacted through her email address Penny.Young@thelink.academy. This Hub is more recent in its formation but has a very strong group of experienced governors collaborating to support the academies. The Moorland Hub was initiated in February 2020 when the academies were re-brokered into the Link.
