Governor

Are you interested in becoming a school governor?  Do you want to make a real difference in your child’s education and the future of our school community?

We are looking for enthusiastic and committed individuals to join our Governing Body.  

The role of School Governor can be a rewarding way of making a contribution to the lives of our pupils and the local community.  At Malet Lambert School, we seek to inspire each other and learn to value greatness, ambition and achievement of all kinds and passionately believe in the limitless potential of every member of our school community. 

Our Local Governing Body (LGB) have a deep understanding of our school, monitor our vision and values and their implementation in all that we do. Governors play a key role in holding school leaders to account for the education provision of the school, including monitoring performance against the Education Inspection Framework, providing scrutiny of safeguarding, curriculum and standards, behaviour and exclusions, personal development and the provision and outcomes for vulnerable students, including SEND, Pupil Premium and (P)LAC. 

As a Governor, you will:

• Help shape the strategic direction of our school.
• Support and challenge leaders to ensure the best possible outcomes for all pupils.
• Represent the voice of parents in decision-making.
• Contribute to maintaining our strong sense of community, high standards, and commitment to excellence.

There are approximately four LGB meetings per academic year, with additional opportunities for governors to monitor activity directly through school visits.
