Parent Governor Vacancy

We are looking to recruit two Parent Governors to our newly formed Local Governing Body for The Polesworth School.
We are looking for people who have the skill to act as a ‘critical friend’ and ask challenging questions about performance and use their skills and experience to support the school in addressing its aims.

The role of the governing body is a strategic one and its key functions are:

• to scrutinise and oversee the management of the schools finances

This is an extremely rewarding role, one which holds great importance within our schools and trust. If you feel that you have skills which could be transferred to help make a real difference to childrens’ lives, please contact us for further information.
