One of the three core strategic functions that must be effectively discharged by Governing Boards is overseeing the financial performance of their school and ensuring that its money is well spent.
This course is non-chargeable for those schools who have an annual Governance Contract with CEP.
The aim of this development session is to provide Governors with an overview on how Academies are funded, the reporting requirements that must be complied with by the Academy Trust and the key strategic role played by both Trustees and Governors on Local Boards.
The material covered in this session will assist Governors’ development in relation to Key Competency 2 (Accountability) and Key Competency 5 (Compliance) within the Governance Competency Framework.
