Northallerton, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom North Yorkshire Council Full time

About the Governance Role

We are seeking dedicated individuals to join our school governance team across various schools in North Yorkshire. As a school governor, you will play a vital role in shaping the educational landscape of our region, contributing to the improvement of local children's lives, and fostering strong community links.

School governors are responsible for working closely with head teachers to ensure effective school management. Key responsibilities include:

  • Strategic Planning: Collaborate with the head teacher to develop and implement the school's strategic direction.
  • Accountability: Hold the head teacher and other school leaders accountable for their performance and decision-making.
  • Financial Oversight: Monitor the school's financial performance, ensuring that resources are utilized efficiently and effectively.

Governing boards typically meet at least once a term, with the frequency and structure of meetings determined by each board. Regular visits to the school are also expected to foster a deeper understanding of the school's operations.

To support new governors, we offer comprehensive training and guidance to help them navigate their duties and develop essential skills in school management.

There are no specific skills or experience required to become a governor. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds, skills, and experiences. However, please note that this role involves working with children and young people, and a DBS check will be required. Additionally, governing boards are required to publish the names of governors, and schools may conduct online searches as part of the selection process.

As your application progresses, you will be asked to provide further information about your skills and the locations within North Yorkshire that you would consider manageable in terms of travel time.
