How to book Whole Governing Body Training (WGBT)
All schools and PRUs will be entitled to a Whole Governing Body or
Management Committee Training session as part of the Suffolk
Package.
For many, this often proves to be the most effective form of
training because the topic is more relevant to the particular
school or PRU. An increasing number of governing bodies are using
this opportunity to train staff and governors together.
Governing bodies are invited to discuss their requirements with
their Link Adviser or Governor Training personnel. Where possible a
session will be provided that is tailored to the specific needs of
the governing body or management committee. (It will not usually be
possible to repeat courses from the Central Programme at WGBT/MC
sessions). The list below might help with your choice.
- SEN Funding and Budget Monitoring
- Health and Safety
- The Ten Year Childcare Strategy
- Healthy Living: Fitness for the Future
- Reducing Exclusions/Managed Moves
- Attendance
- Governing Body Health Check
- Race Equality
- Raising Achievement
- Every Child Matters - an overview
- Governing Body Effectiveness in Meetings
- Governing Body Delegation Arrangements
- Governors Visiting the School
- Governor Roles and Responsibilities
- Governor Roles in Ensuring Staff Well-being
- The Ofsted Self-Evaluation Form (SEF)
