Description

Community Governor Advert
We are currently looking for new community governors to join our friendly governing body.

Our governors come from a range of different backgrounds, skills and experience but all

share a common interest of wanting the best possible education for the children in our school.

We would be delighted to hear from anyone who:

Is interested in children's education and the performance of the school
Is community spirited and would like to represent the community
Has spare time and the energy for the role
Is able to work well as part of a team
Can consider matters objectively and make informed judgements

Governors give their time, skills and expertise in a voluntary capacity, to help

their schools provide children with the best possible education. Governing bodies are

accountable for the strategic direction of their school and for the quality of education

provided.

A Community Governor would bring their own experience and skills to the governing body

and can act as a link with the community. They are appointed to represent community

interests to enable the governing body to add specific areas of expertise to the governing

body, reflecting a balance of interests amongst the stakeholder group.

We don't expect you to be an expert in education and welcome governors from all walks of

life to bring different perspectives and views. You just need to be committed to supporting

our school community and the educational outcomes of our students

Community governors are appointed by the governing body. If a person is eligible to be a

teacher or staff governor at the school, is a registered pupil at the school, or is an elected

member of the LA, they cannot be appointed as a community governor.
