The Governing Body is a key part of the school structure and Governors need to understand and be regularly trained and updated on their roles and responsibilities, including those which arise for them as Trustees if the school is a charity.
What is independent school governance?
Independent school governance refers to the management and oversight of private schools by a board of trustees or governors. These individuals are responsible for setting policies, making financial decisions, and ensuring the school operates in accordance with its mission and values.
