GOVERNOR VACANCIES

We are looking to recruit additional co-opted governors (volunteers) to the Rolls Crescent Local Governing Committee.  No previous school governor experience is necessary as training will be provided but a commitment to support and challenge school leaders in the best interests of all Rolls Crescent pupils is essential.  We would be particularly keen to hear from people who could help the Local Governing Committee monitor the school's performance in maths and the impact of the maths curriculum, but this is not essential.

The role requires attendance at four meetings a year (Thursdays 4-6pm) where there is an expectation that governors have read the reports associated with the agenda and will ask questions of school leaders.  You would be joining a great team of seven governors, some very experienced, some newly-appointed, but all committed to the success of Rolls Crescent.  You would also be joining a strong multi-academy trust and would benefit from learning and development opportunities.

If you are interested in learning more about the role, please contact Steph Rhodes at CLIC Trust: srhodes@clictrust.org
