Governance

Governor's Skills Audit
If you are a newly appointed governor, academy representative or director in one of our diocesan schools then please complete a skills audit . This will assist the DES in identifying training needs for all of those involved in the governance of our schools.

We also recommend that all existing governors complete this skills audit on an annual basis to ensure that they identify their training needs and these needs can then be met by suitable providers, including the DES.
