Received my copy of @EmmaKn24 book today. Started with chapter 10 “Who governs our schools” as that’s a particular interest of mine. This is WHY we volunteer as governors. #ukgovchat
How do you foster a good balance between school and home?
What tips do you have to minimise what isn't needed?

Message from @DavidDidau He’s a trustee and urges teachers to join boards. You’ll learn a lot. #rED25 #ukgovchat
And me! Looking toward to chatting governance. Everyone working in schools should understand who governs our schools and what we do. So, come along to K11 at 11:35 and find out. #ukgovchat

AND HERE IT IS. The #rED25 timetable. A multiverse crossover of edu-titans, demigods and chimaeras. Enjoy!
Last governors meeting of the year tonight.
It never ceases to amaze me how complex attendance and pupil mental health really is!
In light of national and local problems, our schools do an amazing job ...

Very important point here by @miconm All of us who are involved in governance should watch out that we don’t fall into this category. Our role is to hold the exec to account no matter how charismatic/popular they are. #ukgovchat
@allenjanice1 Governance can be unquestioning - especially where a charismatic leader is involved.
@Strickomaster Also, contextual safeguarding will be very important too. Boards should be asking questions around this.#Safeguarding #ukgovchat
The Secretary of State @educationgovuk sent the school & trust governance community a message of support & thanks with a commitment to working together. Thank you @bphillipsonMP. Much appreciated by our packed event #ngaconf & beyond @NGAMedia

If you are involved in school governance, then do follow @AlRicNLG and his #BigQuestions posts. The posts and the replies are a very good way of self reflection and also of sharing if good practice. #ukgovchat

#bigquestions: What good #governance questions should we be asking after our meetings?

School governors are, perhaps, (don’t have exact data) the largest volunteer force in England. #ukgovchat
Do you personally do any volunteering or charity work, worth more than or equal to 2 hours a week on average?
(And no, unpaid overtime doesn't count)
Governors, question for you.
Must say this shows appreciation for governors. Thank you.

Can anyone help?
What leaving gift would you give to a retiring Chair of Governors?
We need some feedback. When Twitter became X, it stopped “talking” to Wakelet so we can’t collate #ukgovchat sessions. We’re wondering if we should explore using Spaces for our weekly chats. Either way, we would need people to host these chats or they can’t happen. Please vote.
Two important threads by @ajjolley
Governors, have you ever joined pupils at lunch and checked the quality of what’s being served? #ukgovchat
Given my recent post on school meals has gone viral and been picked up by the MSM, I thought i'd do a quick thread explaining some of the complexities and wider issues surrounding this case
As always the simplistic headlines don't tell the full story

@jillberry102 talked about the importance of aligning vision and values of the board and the executive leaders they appoint. Couldn’t agree more! #ukgovchat https://t.co/J4lOM7xtdR
Happy New Year to all trustees/governors who selflessly volunteer to serve our children. May 2024 be a peaceful year for you and your schools. #ukgovchat
#ukgovchat Huge congratulations to governor colleagues on well deserved recognition of their service. @gatortiff & @workvitality extend their reach & support for others as fellow members of @IGovS1 Thanks for all you do.🍾🏅🥂
