As a school we recognise that a diversity is essential to good governance and the effective running of any organisation. We regularly collect diversity information from our governors and, depending on current data, can use this to:
- target recruitment to address gaps in experience and diversity
- develop and adapt board practices to ensure full participation
- prioritise training and awareness-raising in identified areas
- address potential ‘blind spots’ through seeking wider advice and perspectives on current and upcoming opportunities, challenges and risks
However, we are unable to publish diversity information as it would mean that individual members of our governing body are identifiable.
Meeting dates for the Local Advisory Board:
Wednesday 10th December 2024 at 9.30am
Tuesday 4th March 2025 at 9.30am
Tuesday 20th May 2025 at 9.30am
