12 May Parent Governor Vacancy
Dear Parent/Carer,
We have a vacancy for a Parent Governor which we need to fill as soon as possible. The Governing Body is responsible for strategic issues such as Finance, Staffing and Standards. Parent governors are elected by and from the parents of children currently attending our school. They serve a four-year term of office and bring a very important and valued perspective to the work of the governing body. We are looking for a Governor with one or more of the following skills:
- Financial
- Data Analysis
- Human Resources
The governing body has a vital role to play in making sure every child receives the best possible education. This is achieved by ensuring that governors have the necessary skills and commitment to contribute to the effective governance and success of the school. This will include personal qualities and capabilities, such as the ability and willingness to learn and work as part of a team. It is expected that governors will make use of the various training opportunities available to them and play a full part in the work of the governing body. There is a commitment to approximately six meetings per year which currently take place at 5pm on Mondays.
If you are interested in becoming a governor, please contact me or one of the senior leadership team. You can talk to us on the school gate or make an appointment via the school office or by email
