Governor Development

Spring Term Training

The training schedule for the spring term 2012 is now available.

Induction Training

Induction Training is offered to all new governors at the time they receive their welcome pack from the Local Authority.  New Governors will be contacted directly about dates for induction training so there is no need to complete a training booking form.

Safer Recruitment Training

Governors may be aware that from January 2010 the Government is proposing to make it a statutory requirement that at least one member of every school recruitment panel has successfully completed approved safer recruitment training.   

Further details of the safer recruitment training are available here.

Bespoke Training

We are able to arrange training for individual schools and groups of schools.  This is not currently covered under our SBSA and would therefore attract an individual charge. Please contact the School Governance Team for more information if you are interested in arranging such a session.

Training Liaison Governors

The School Governance Team is seeking to improve links with Training Liaison Governors.  If your Governing Body does not currently have a Training Liaison Governor you are encouraged to consider appointing one. If you do so please ensure that the Team has the individual's contact details.

The termly Training Liaison Governor Briefing provides an opportunity for Training Liaison Governors to share good practice and keep up to date with issues impacting governor training.

The autumn term briefing will take place on Wednesday 29th February 10-11.45am, at The Berkeley Primary School, Wistaston, Crewe.

For further information, including a role description for the role of Training Liaison Governor follow the link to the Training Liaison Governor webpage.
