Co-opted Governor

What is the role of a school governor?

School governors offer strategic guidance, rather than getting involved in the operational aspects of a school. This involves:

• Working with other 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. School governors usually attend around six meetings per year. Although becoming a school governor requires drive and commitment, you’ll enjoy many professional and personal rewards, including career development opportunities and the chance to support young people’s futures.

What kind of Co-opted Governor are we looking for?

We have a diverse, highly skilled and established board, and are looking for a co-opted governor with a senior management level background or legal experience.

If you are interested in finding out more, please contact the school to arrange an informal chat with the Chair of Governors.
