Maintained Schools – Subscription Reminder!
It is time to renew your school’s annual subscription to the Governor Training & Support Programme and The Clerking Service.
WES services have sent out service offers to schools asking them to make their decisions regarding which LA services they wish to purchase for 2018/19.
Governing Boards should be making the decision to subscribe to the Governor Training & Support Programme, GovernorHub, Learning Link and the Clerking Service.
All boards, no matter what type of schools or how many schools they govern, must be effective and encourage everyone involved in governance, especially those new to their role, to make the most of the resources, guidance and training available to develop their knowledge and skills.
Warwickshire Governor Services recognise that school governor’s responsibilities are wide – ranging, with boards facing new challenges on a regular basis. The service offered provides reliable, prompt and relevant advice, information and training enabling governors of all schools to fulfil their role in holding school leaders to account through support, challenge and driving school improvement.
