Today we had a guest speaker in the lecture covering Andy. He was an ex Head Teacher, Steve was Head at a large school in Birmingham. In this lecture he talked to us about Governers, explaining what they were and what their roles are. Steve explained that there are 23,000 Governers in Wales, he then gave us a handout showing the main key roles. This includes promoting high standards, setting targets and managing the school budget. Steve then went onto who is included in the Govening body. It is built up of parents, LEA's, Teachers, Staff, Community and the Head.
Steve then gave us another hand out explaining how school governers interact with the teachers. I now know they do this by job interviews, informal visits to schools, celebrations and meetings.
