What is a governor?
Who can be a governor?
Anyone over the age of 18 can be a governor. You don’t have to have teaching experience or even have a child currently at the school. There are several ‘types’ of governor which means people from all walks of life can be involved. The most important thing is that you are committed, enthusiastic and have time that you are willing to use for the benefit of the school. You also need to be ready to read several reports and attend meetings.

Priority numbers relate to the school improvement plan areas. Each Governor has an area of this to monitor along with additional and specific responsibilities such as being the Safeguarding or Pupil Premium Governor.
Associate Governors do not take on a monitoring role but attend meetings in an advisory and supportive capacity.
