School Governor

St Benedict's Primary School,

Join our fantastic school as we strive to fulfil our vision for all children to enjoy their rights and fulfil their dreams.

The Governors are seeking to appoint 1 community governor to join our strong team.

We welcome community governors who have a passion for achieving the best possible educational experience for the children in our local community. In addition, we want our community governors to work in a supportive but challenging way with the Senior Leadership of the school.

To be a community governor you should have:

• A strong commitment to the role and to improving outcomes for children.
• Good inter-personal skills, curiosity, and a willingness to learn and develop new skills.

Knowledge of management, or business, or a passion for the arts will greatly improve the effectiveness of our governing board and have a positive impact on our pupils’ education.

Expectations of governors: 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. 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.
