School governors are the largest volunteer workforce in Europe; giving their time and experience to help make Britain’s schools better. Unfortunately, precisely because they are volunteers, organising effective training is sometimes difficult.

At the same time, quality training is vitally important and ranks high on the wish list of school governors across the country.

So what’s the solution?

Modern Governor is a new service from Learning Pool, the public sector e-learning exchange, that seeks to address this need. It is designed to help local authority school governors develop their skills through e-learning at a time, place and pace that suits their needs.

Expert Training Through eLearning

Developed with the help of industry experts and experienced governors, Modern Governor’s regularly updated course modules reflect the latest initiatives and challenges facing school governors today.

From understanding school finances to planning for an OFSTED inspection, the core content has been designed to help both experienced school governors and new recruits alike.

A subscription to Modern Governor provides governors within your local authority, with complete and ongoing access to all course content, resulting in a more confident and motivated team – and at a fraction of the cost of classroom based training.
