The pace of change in education has continued to accelerate since
the 1988 Education Act, and even experienced school governors are
often bewildered about their duties and responsibilities, as well
as what is actually happening in primary and secondary classrooms
nowadays. What do school governors do? How can they manage their
role most effectively? The School Governors Handbook has been the
most definitive and widely read book on the subject since it was
first published in 1980. Written by Ted Wragg and John Partington,
two of the most respected experts in the field, one of its' great
strengths has always been its mixture of up-to-date authoritative
information and humour. In this third edition, all sections of the
book have been substantially revised to take account of the many
changes in governors' duties that have been brought about by recent
legislation. As governors rarely receive any specific training for
their important role, this book is an essential guide to the legal
and practical aspects of governorship. Sections cover: recent
legislative changes in funding and school management opting out
governors responsibilities, including budgets, staffing and drawing
up whole school policies how to run effective governors meetings
curriculum and assessment issues school inspections how to manage
difficult situations, including child abuse, discipline, equal
opportunities and pupil exclusions
