Welcome to day 10 of Blogmas! We’re now over halfway through the 2021 Blogmas series so I thought today we’d look ahead and start forward planning for the spring term.
Suggested standing items:
- Welcome, apologies, declarations of interest
- Minutes of the last meeting and matters arising
- Headteacher/CEO report – to include attendance, staffing, school development plan (or equivalent) – review of progress to date, Covid update, GDPR etc.
- Safeguarding and vulnerable groups
- Governor monitoring visits and reports
- Policies (as per policy review schedule)
- AOB
- Date of next meeting
Key areas to consider for the spring term – dependent upon your setting’s annual schedule of business:
- HT mid-term performance management
- Census data
- School Financial Values Standard (SFVS) (maintained)
- S175 Safeguarding Audit
- If consultation has taken place on any proposed changes to the Admissions Policy, consider any feedback received and agree final admissions policy
- Publish the admission appeals timetable for 2022-23 on the school website
- Receive a finance report from the school business manager and ensure challenge is recorded
- Review and agree the salaries of teaching and support staff
