Corby Business Academy are looking for a Governor to join our Governing body. As a Co-opted Governor you will be a volunteer who makes a vital contribution to the success of the Academy.
This role may be particularly of interest if you have experience in an educational or social care environment or a background in industry. We invite applications from anyone who is interested in helping the Academy be the best it can be.
If you are passionate about helping the local community and want to make a real and positive impact on education, this role is rewarding and provides opportunities to develop your personal and professional skills. It offers networking openings, working with other likeminded people from different backgrounds with the scope to shape the future of Education in the local community.
In this voluntary role, you will work as part of a team and play a vital role in ensuring the Local Governing Board is connected with parents, carers, and the community.
Ideally, we are looking for:
A strong commitment to the role and to improving outcomes for pupils. Good interpersonal skills, a willingness to learn, develop new skills, and attend relevant training. The ability to support and work within the School Improvement Plan framework. The ability to attend and contribute in meetings whilst maintaining confidentiality. The ability to work as part of a team and value the contributions of others who may hold alternative views to your own. Requirements: Governors are required to attend three full governing body meetings per year and attend other ad-hoc meetings as required. Governor meetings are held in the Academy after school; timings are typically from 4.00 p.m. to 6.00 p.m. Governors will also be required to visit the school in between meetings to gain a greater understanding of the school, how it functions, and progress towards the School Improvement Plan. Being a Governor is a "hands off" role and although recommendations made by Governors influence the Academy, Governors are not responsible for, or are involved in, the day-to-day running of the school. Full training will be provided upon commencement of the role. Once in post, Governors will be required to attend regular training sessions, either in person or online. Governors are elected to serve for a four-year period.
