Governance
BackSchool Governors offer strategic guidance, rather than getting involved in the operational aspects of a school. This involves:
- Working with other Governors and Board members to plan the school’s strategic direction.
- Overseeing the school’s financial performance, ensuring money is well-spent.
- Holding the headteacher or school leadership to account.
A school governor’s relationship with the school’s leadership team involves challenging existing processes to drive school improvement. Being a school governor requires drive and commitment, but individuals say they enjoy many professional and personal rewards, including career development opportunities and the chance to support young people’s futures.
