The effectiveness and commitment of any school's governing body
is critical to its success. Governors must have the skills and
attributes that will best serve their school. They must be
effectively recruited and inducted and have a framework of training
support, accountability, terms of reference and role descriptions
that help them to stay highly motivated while recognising that
their time is voluntarily given.
If issues do arise in relation to governors, our Schools team
can help. We have advised on:
- the management of conflicts of interest (and supporting
documentation)
- governors performing below standard and the eventual removal of
a governor
- governors' disagreements as to policy
- governance dysfunction arising from failure to understand the
different roles of the board and the senior management team
In addition, we also provide an on-going programme of governor
induction and refresher training designed to help your school
comply with best practice to induct and refresh governors.
Informative and interactive, our training courses are run in
Southampton, Oxford and London. Please get in touch with us to find
out more.
