Governor Support and Clerking Package
Governor Support and Clerking
Professional clerking, effective administration and strategic advice.
Effective governance is essential in providing schools with strategic direction and leadership. It also holds school leaders to account for educational and financial performance in order to achieve the best outcomes for all children and young people.
BDSIP offers a package which supports effective governance comprising two key areas:
Access to expert advice and guidance on governance issues from our highly skilled Governor Services team:
- Support and advice provided when you need it via phone or email – for matters of statutory governance in all types of schools (community, academy, diocesan) – by our highly experienced Governor Services Manager
- Access to best practice exemplars, including policies on governance, finance matters, school improvement and inclusion, and other education services.
Qualified, experienced clerks:
- Allocation of a skilled and trained clerk who will prepare agendas for governing board meetings, coordinate briefing reports, support and minute the full board meetings, monitor the board membership, governors’ skill sets and attendance, provide advice on statutory matters and maintain governing board data
- Assurance that your governing body is fulfilling all statutory duties and complying with regulations
- Planning and management of information to be provided through briefings, newsletters, websites or telephone support as appropriate.
- Information for meetings sent to governors at least seven days in advance.
Our service also has a strong track record in supporting schools and governing boards which need to improve in order to become ‘good’ or ‘outstanding’.

“At Henry Green Primary we have been very pleased with our Governor Services clerking. Our very experienced Clerk brings with her a wealth of knowledge and experience, as well as a great understanding of local shools and the heritage of the area. She helps keep us ‘on the straight and narrow’ in the realms of Governance in a most supportive way.”
