Parent Governor Vacancy Update

Could you be a governor? There’s more time to apply!

A small group of parents did not receive the letter inviting nominations for the parent governor vacancies on the Governing Board. The deadline has therefore been extended to allow all parents time to apply. The new deadline is 12.00 noon on 29 March. 

We have sent out a letter inviting nominations from parents who would like to join the Governing Board. If you feel you can help in this capacity, please contact the Clerk on 01983 526523 or email emma.shambrook@iwef.org.uk for an application form. If there are more applications than vacancies a ballot will be held. Application forms must be returned by 12.00 noon on 29 March.

A copy of the Federation’s governor recruitment information can be found at https://www.iwef.org.uk/iwef/governor-recruitment/. This includes more information about the work of the Governing Board, who can be a governor and what to expect. If you would like to talk to a governor before applying please contact the Clerk. You can also find information about the role of governor online at: https://governorsforschools.org.uk/courses/introduction-to-school-governance/

Please note that, for the protection of children, all governor appointments are subject to an identity and DBS check.
