Developing A Winning Team
Understanding what school leaders and governing bodies should expect from each other is essential to developing a supportive and professional relationship between both parties. With this foundation the school leadership team as a whole is able to make sharply focused operational and strategic decisions for the benefit of all pupils.
To support schools in developing a ‘Winning Team’ we have engaged Brian Beal who delivers a range of governor support programmes for Leeds Beckett and the Alliance ‘New to Governor’ sessions. He will facilitate a guided forum, aimed at Headteachers and Chairs of Governors - an opportunity to spend time considering the effectiveness of leadership and governance in their schools.
The objectives of the session are:
- To explore the respective roles of governance and management.
- To clarify best practice regarding the information that headteachers need to provide governing bodies with, and who is responsible for determining its content and format.
- To explore what a well-balanced professional relationship between the chair/governing body and the headteacher looks like, and how this can be sustained.
- To consider how the governing body can be supported and developed to ensure that its partnership with the headteacher is effective.
The cost per partnership schools is £75 (headteacher and Chair of Governors), a charge will be made if the place is cancelled less than a week before the event.
Non partnership schools are welcome, please contact the Swaledale Alliance for further details and non-partnership prices.
