Governor Plan

Gain the confidence you need to take responsibility for safeguarding.

Keeping Children Safe in Education

Senior board level teams need support to lead your organisation’s safeguarding arrangements.

There is not a lot of guidance or support for Governors with safeguarding responsibility, so this membership provides structure and advice for those in this crucial role. This includes materials for learning walks, helpful questions for the governing body, structures for safeguarding reports, training and advice by telephone or email as you need it.

Benefits:

  • Gain the confidence to take responsibility for safeguarding.

Perfect for:

  • School governors.

  • Setting proprietors.

"The Governor materials have very useful examples of questions for our DSLs, as well as some thoughts to consider for us all when completing learning walks and talking to children, young people and staff. There is also a very useful Audit Tool available. I have no hesitation recommending the documents to colleagues."

Jane Owens, MBE. Former National Leader of Governance.
