Pathway to School Governance

2 weeks ago


Guildford, Surrey, United Kingdom Governors for Schools Full time

Pathway to Governance is a unique CPD-certified programme designed to prepare young people for a school governance role in their local community. We're currently looking to recruit participants aged
18-30 and living or working in Surrey
.

What difference will you make?

You might assume you do not have the right skills and experience to be a school governor. This may be simply because you're just starting out in your career, because you are still studying, because you are too young, or because you don't hold professional qualifications.

However, the reality is that schools
need
school governors with a broad range of skills and perspectives to help them run effectively, and younger volunteers like you are an essential part of this equation.

  • Young adults have more recent first-hand experience of the modern education system. This allows you to offer unique viewpoints on a range of issues affecting today's schools.
  • Younger school governors tend to be more sensitive to the importance of inclusion and sustainability.
  • Growing up in the digital era means younger volunteers understand the kinds of skills younger generations will need in their personal and professional lives.

The Pathway to Governance programme is designed to empower participants to have the confidence to apply to school governance roles and lend their voices to boards across Surrey.

This opportunity will help you understand the valuable contribution you can make to your community through school governance while equipping yourself with the skills and knowledge you need in the role.

Lots of people also think you have to work in education or have children to be a school governor, but this
isn't true
. School governing boards need people from all backgrounds to function effectively.

What are we looking for?

Pathway to Governance isn't just about helping you share your skills with schools. The programme also offers participants a fantastic opportunity to develop their own personal and professional skills base. These skills can then be brought back to their workplace or studies. Research conducted on the experiences of school governors working in professional fields revealed a close match between the skills used in a school governance context and in a corporate/professional context. In particular, school governors recognised significant overlap in the following areas

  • Providing challenge and asking probing questions.
  • Strategic planning and developing professional relationships.
  • Leading, persuading or influencing others.

School governors reported strong development in these transferable skills, which in turn has led to enhanced performance in the workplace. In addition to the areas set out above, school governors also reported strong growth in

  • Preparation, flexibility and agility.
  • Analysing performance data and KPIs.
  • Financial skills and value for money.

What will you be doing?

The Pathway to Governance programme in Surrey is being generously funded by the Community Foundtion for Surrey, and is worth upwards of £400 per participant.

Once accepted onto the programme you'll receive

  • A dedicated Pathway to Governance contact who can offer support and guidance through the programme.
  • Access to Governors for Schools eLearning materials designed specifically by for those who are new to school governance, our CPD-certified 'Become an Effective New School Governor' series. These are all online and can be done at your own pace.
  • A live school governing board simulation experience, where you are able to apply their skills and learning to a real school governance context.
  • 1 1 application support to become a school governor.
