After many months of hard work, we’re finally live! Our team of consultants work with Governors at over 1,400 schools and our aim is to share our experience and expertise with you through our new Better Governor website. If you are curious about us and want to know who we are and what we do, you can watch our short videos. Amanda Peck, an academy governor , and Steve Barker, our Head of Governance Consultancy, will introduce our vision for the Better Governor website and briefly talk through the resources that will be available to you. Why not let us know if there is a subject you would like to see featured and we’ll do our best to push it up our priority list.

Curriculum

The national curriculum in England 2014 has had huge consequences for what is taught, learned and assessed in schools. Governors will find articles and resources here which will help them get to grips with these changes and understand what the issues are for their schools, and the young people under their care.

Secondary Matters Webinar
This Better Governor webinar focused on issues germane to secondary education. In this first of a series of Secondary Matters webinars, we explored the curriculum and how current policy, thought, research and plans to overhaul the Ofsted Inspection framework will influence what is taught in secondary schools going forward.
