An Effective Governors' Meeting

As the role and responsibilities of the governors grow, more has to be achieved in governors’ meetings. 

It is important that the chairperson runs the meeting effectively so the business of the day is covered with everybody able to contribute. 

The minutes should reflect the best practice as outlined in FMSiS and are useful evidence at the OfSTED inspection in demonstrating that the governing body is working effectively.

The author

Joanna Gutmann is a primary school governor as well as an experienced trainer in managing and minuting meetings.





 

an effective governors’ meeting
is an invaluable guide to achieving the best outcomes in the least time at the meeting.  There is guidance on every aspect from the role of the chair, minute-taker and participants, through using the sections of the meeting correctly and working with the support of a useful agenda, through to the completed minutes.  There is help for the chair on managing the tricky behaviours which can be a barrier to effectiveness and for the minute-taker on note-taking and structuring minutes.   Useful examples and checklists provide practical help and guidance.

Special offer

I will be recommending the governors meeting one in our next newsletter, there is some good practical advice in there. I also love the little punctuation guide! I bought it out of curiosity really and I can see how useful it can be.
