Heads of Partnership
We have followed the Northumberland County Council’s suggested governance model (see below). We have now set up a governance voluntary committee whose membership is both senior management and an extended services link governor from each school within the partnership.
What does the committee do?
- Manages and directs the extended services agenda meeting on a quarterly basis.
- Membership is made up of a governor and a senior member of management from each school and carries voting powers.
- A greater community involvement - key agencies such representatives from health, children's services, FACT's team, early years, youth workers, voluntary bodies are invited to attend making the committee a true partnership and greatly enhance us to meet our targets.
- Enables us to further access external funding.
- Will allow us to build up a team including volunteer workers right across the partnership.
- Reports back to their relevant school governing bodies – widening the communication channels.
Aim of the Committee
- Defining the vision
- Development planning
- Monitoring and evaluation
- Financial decisions
- Staff appointments (for Extended Services only) and work programmes
- Income generators
- Share information across the partnership
