Being a governor

As a governor you may feel isolated from the experiences of governors in other schools. These case studies may help to offer insights into what solutions other governors are finding to common situations.

You'll find a few case studies relevant to governors by using the drop-down menus on the Beacon Schools case studies database.

The National Governors' Council has a few examples of good practice on its site.
