Nursery Schools Governor Representative
During the summer term 2009, nominations were
invited for a nursery governor to represent nursery schools on the
Schools Forum. There were no expressions of interest at the
time and nominations were sought again in January 2010.
Two candidates expressed an interest and
ballot papers were sent to nursery school governors, 42% of which
were returned.
Marcus Jemmotte, a parent governor at Columbia
Market Nursery School received the most votes and has been
appointed for two years to serve on the Schools Forum.
He can be contacted by e-mail on: jemmarq@hotmail.com
National Audit Office: Improving School Performance
The National Audit Office have produced a guide for school
governors which you can read or download here.
The guide was first published in May 2006 and was very positively
received and governors have commented that they found it a valuable
reference to help identify and tackle the issues important to
schools' organisation and performance. This revised
guide includes up-to-date information and draws attention to
findings from recent work in the schools sector.
The clerk to your governing body will be able to advise you on
most matters that come up, and give you other sources of
information that help you. Tower Hamlets governor services
are also happy to help all Tower Hamlets schools.
