Things seem to be very busy at the moment, we haven’t quite got everything settled down since the start of term, and the arrival of Debz (our year-out worker) has been great but meant there is more background work to be doing, so in many ways that last thing I want is to spend tomorrow and Monday out of the office, but that is what I am doing.
I became an Associate Governor at a local primary school about a year ago, and am just managing to get into doing all the County training, and I am quite excited about it. I am sure a lot of it will overlap with my training and knowledge for Children’s and Youth Work, for example, tomorrow is a session on Safeguarding Children, but it will be nice to feel like I have a clearer understanding of the role and skills of being a governor.
