Corporate Governance

Introduction

The Group is committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance, transparency and accountability. This page provides access to key governance documents, committee terms of reference, meeting minutes and statutory reports relating to the Corporation Board and its committees.

During the transition to a single set of B&FC Group governance documents, some related publications may continue to be referenced from the legacy college websites. Where no B&FC Group document has yet been published, relevant Blackpool and The Fylde College governance statements, reports and minutes will remain applicable.

Governance statements, reports and minutes published on the Furness College website relate to arrangements in place before 1 August 2026 and are retained for reference purposes only.
