If you are a professional who has an interest in education and wants to support our school with your passion, experience and knowledge – we would love to hear from you!
Governors do not need specific qualifications however; we have identified 4 areas of opportunity where you could add value:
• Human Resources
• Finance and Risk
• Further Education/Vocational
• Local Employer
Governors also need to have the ability to listen, set high expectations and be able to ask challenging questions. This is a real opportunity to join a collaborative group of staff, parents and community members who are dedicated to ensuring our learners achieve academically and develop independence, life and work skills that will help to prepare them for further education and employment.
