Summary
Luton Governor Services are looking for individuals to become school governors. You would be part of a friendly and supportive team of governors who contribute greatly to the continued success of each school.
Governors are people like you – you do not need to be a parent, but you do need to be over 18 and have a passion about improving the standard of education for all pupils in Luton schools. Any additional skills you have in either your work or family life is a bonus.
This is a voluntary role and you will be fully trained and supported throughout – meetings are generally held in the evenings and are a mixture of face to face and online.
School Governors work together to carry out their core functions:
ensuring there is clarity of vision, ethos and strategic direction
holding executive leaders to account for the educational performance of the organisation and its pupils and the performance management of staff
overseeing the financial performance of the organisation and making sure its money is well spent
Governors must also ensure that the governing body complies with all legal and statutory requirements.
