Governor Vacancy
Could you make a positive contribution to a local school?
Being a Governor is a rewarding way of making a voluntary contribution to the lives of local young people. William Reynolds Primary School and Nursery is looking for new governors to join our team.
We would be delighted to hear from anyone who has:
- an interest in the performance of the schools
- an open and enquiring mind and the ability to look at issues objectively
- the confidence to ask questions and join in debate
- a willingness to listen and make informed judgements
- the ability to work well with others
- Some time to spare to attended meetings and work with subject leaders
The Governing Body at William Reynolds Primary School and Nursery has three main functions:
- Setting strategic direction – championing our vision, values and ethos and setting priorities for school improvement
- Holding to account – we are responsible for holding the Headteacher and Senior Leaders to account for the quality of teaching and learning, levels of achievement, behaviours and safety.
- Ensuring good financial governance – ensuring good financial management by setting and overseeing the budget, ensuring that resources are allocated to school priorities and needs.
Being a governor can be enjoyable, stimulating and rewarding and you do not have to be the parent of a child at the school. All governors must complete safeguarding checks.
If you are interested, please email a brief description about yourself and why you would like to join the governing body to Kimberley Ray the school business manager.
