Are you interested in finding out more about becoming a school governor?
Join Governors for Schools to explore why volunteering as a school governor is a fantastic way to broaden your skills and network, build up board-level experience and help set the strategic direction of a school.
In this session, Ofsted will explore what research and inspection tells us about effective assessment, curriculum and pedagogy for secondary-aged pupils who need to catch up urgently with reading. Ofsted will also share how they inspect this aspect of a school’s work.
In this webinar, Ofsted will discuss how inspectors look at attendance during an EIF school inspection. They will give an overview of the findings from their research into how schools secure good attendance and some of the things that schools do when they tackle persistent absence well. They'll touch on some of the barriers that schools continue to experience in promoting good attendance post-COVID, as well as some of the practices that can get in the way of improvement.
Join Sam Henson, NGA Director of Policy and Communications, who'll address how governance in MATs works in practice, from the business of the trust board, through to how they work and communicate with the local tier of governance at school level.

Plus, there will be an open Q&A session.
