School governors play a vital role in the management of our schools. They offer strategic guidance to school leadership teams and work with other School Advisory Board (SAB) members to plan a school’s strategic direction. They: 

• Oversee a school’s financial performance, ensuring money is well-spent
• Hold the headteacher and school leadership team to account
• Challenge existing processes to drive school improvement

Becoming a school governor requires drive and commitment, plus attendance at approximately six meetings a year. In return, it offers many professional and personal rewards, including career development opportunities and the chance to support young people’s futures.
