Are you interested in becoming a Parent Governor/Governor for our Federation?

What does this role involve?

The parent governor role is strategic rather than operational. Governors don’t get involved with the day to day running of a school, instead supporting and challenging the school’s leadership team to drive school improvement across Bromstone Primary School and St. Mildred’s Infant School.

Parent governors usually attend around 6 meetings a year (in school hours and after school hours). Being a parent governor is a commitment and a responsibility, but offers you the chance to see first-hand the impact you can make in improving education for children in your community.

This is a voluntary role. What skills do I need?

A parent governor will need the following skills:

• strong commitment to the role and to improving outcomes for children;
• the inquisitiveness to question and analyse, and the willingness to learn;
• good inter-personal skills;
• appropriate levels of literacy in English;
• sufficient numeracy skills to understand basic data.
• preferably, a background of Health and Safety

I am interested. What do I do now?

We have one vacancy. To express your interest or for further information please contact the office via email at office@bromstone.kent.sch.uk by Friday 9^th January. Mrs Jan Brazier (The chair of Governors) will be in contact in the next term.
