Services for Schools 2017/2018

Governor Services

Our objective is to support and empower your governing board by providing services and expertise from professional clerking to guiding your strategic leadership and school improvement initiatives.

Our team of independent advisers supports over 250 boards across the region and has extensive experience of working with all types of governance. We ensure your board is kept updated on current legal responsibilities and changes to policy and practice. We also provide access to training on all governance and procedural issues. The quality of our Reviews of Governance service and our strengths in providing training and development have been recognised by Ofsted.

“BLT Governor Service is professional, hands-on and approachable and their expertise and knowledge has helped us navigate through some sensitive and complex issues. We also find the leadership briefings and training courses extremely useful.” Ms Jean Stidwell (School Governance Consultative Board)

“The BLT service is professional but also warm

and friendly. It gives us access to a body of expertise and knowledge drawn from a variety of other schools and contexts. Our clerk and her BLT colleagues are a ready source of guidance and information, but perhaps most of all are trustworthy interlocutors who have helped us to develop our own thoughts and skills.” Mr Stuart Smith, Chair of Governors (Woodside Junior School)
