Our Professional Development Programme offers a comprehensive range of training courses, workshops and briefings covering all aspects of school governance. There is something to suit everyone, whether you are new to governance or have been in your role for a number of years.
Working with academy colleagues, Governor Services have designed 2024 - 2025 Professional Development Programme for Academy Schools & Trusts. Courses have been developed to ensure compliance with the Academy Trust Handbook 2023 and continuous professional development for those responsible for governance at all levels.

Why become a governor?
Schools and Academies in Warwickshire are seeking skilled and motivated volunteers who are committed to improving education and making a positive difference to children’s futures.
We believe that every child and young person will:
- attend a good or outstanding school or setting
- achieve well whatever their starting point or circumstances
- go on to positive destinations
Governors need to both support and challenge the Headteacher to ensure rigorous attention is paid to raising and maintaining standards in line with both school plans and government requirements.
