NORFOLK GOVERNORS' NETWORK

A portfolio of model policies for governing bodies

NGN is regularly asked by governors in Norfolk why there isn’t an easily accessed portfolio of model governors’ policies.

We would like to help but need your help to do so.

If your governing body has recently gone through the process of updating any or all of the following policies and would be willing to share those with other governing bodies if approached, we would be grateful if you could forward the following details to our NGN Clerk, This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

The details we require are:-

• Which of the following governors’ policies would you be willing to share with other governing bodies?
• If other governing bodies wish to make contact with you who should they make contact with and what is their e-mail address?

The governors’ policies are

• CHARGING AND REMISSIONS
• CHILD PROTECTION
• COLLECTIVE WORSHIP
• COMPLAINTS
• CURRICULUM
• EXCLUSIONS AND PUPIL DISCIPLINE
• HEALTH AND SAFETY
• HOME SCHOOL AGREEMENT
• PAYMENT OF GOVERNORS’ ALLOWANCES
• PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT
• RACE EQUALITY
• SEX AND RELATIONSHIPS EDUCATION
• SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS
• STAFF DISCIPLINE AND GRIEVANCE
• STAFF PAY
• TARGET SETTING

Our intention, assuming we receive a favourable response to this request, is to include a section on this website which lists these policies and the contact details of the governing bodies willing to share them.

We will also include details of how to find model policies recommended by the Local Authority and the contact details for those offered by commercial suppliers

We do hope that governing bodies will help us with this
