The school is looking for committed people to join the school’s Governing Board.
The Governing Board of our school is made up of parent, staff, and external governors.
The recruitment process initially requires you to complete a governor application form including a skills audit, to allow the Governing board to understand your skill set.
The final stage is a meeting with the Headteacher and/or Chair of Governors.
The Governing Board operates at a strategic level and is not involved in the day-to-day running of the school. We are responsible for both the conduct of the school and for the promotion of high standards. We carry out this role by setting the vision for the school, ensuring that the school works efficiently and effectively towards achieving its vision, and that the school provides a high quality education for its pupils. This is done by building a thorough knowledge of the school and its community, by both supporting and constructively challenging the school, and by ensuring accountability and compliance.
Governors need not be experts in the field of education. What they do need is an interest in the school and in the welfare of its pupils, together with the time and willingness to get involved. The skills you have can be very useful to the Governing Board.
Governors also need ‘soft skills’ – the ability to be able to build relationships with a range of people, to be able to work as part of a team, to be able to question, and to make connections between different types of information.
Our Governing Board has certain expectations of governors, which currently are:
* to attend and contribute to termly meetings of the full Governing Board
* to monitor an independent school standard key area, and meet with relevant staff members on a minimum of a termly basis, reporting on each visit to the Governing Board
* to visit the school formally for monitoring purposes as directed by the Governing Board,
* to commit to attend training courses,
* to comply with the expectations set out in our Code of Conduct.
