CSC Governor Training

The Central South Consortium recognises the importance of governors and the key role that they play in supporting and challenging their schools. To support them in this valuable role Central South Consortium is, from September 2016, delivering the mandatory training sessions for governors. Alongside these mandatory sessions the Consortium will also deliver a number of sessions which are pertinent to their role in school improvement. The termly briefings which proved very useful last year will continue and the themes of these will again focus on priorities related to school improvement and the work of the Consortium.
