NGA Visible Governance in Schools campaign

Visible Governance in Schools campaign

Will you join us in championing your contribution to the education system and shining a light on the difference that good governance makes to your school/trust?

To celebrate and promote the value that good governance brings to the school system and the people that volunteer for the role, we are encouraging Learning Link users to take part in our Visible Governance in Schools campaign.

NGA believes that school and trust governance is almost always invisible when it is working well, and very much in the spotlight when things go wrong. Through this campaign we want to achieve a higher profile and better understanding of governance, and further improve the lives of children and their communities.

We’ve come up with a list of simple actions that you can take as an individual or as a governing board to highlight what you do and why you do it. Take a look at the list: https://www.nga.org.uk/getattachment/News/Campaigns/Visible-Governance/Making-school-governance-visible-ideas-for-supporters-PDF.pdf?lang=en-GB. We would love to receive photos of governors, trustees and supporters with the campaign logo, to see you use it in your board’s activities, and hear about what you do to take part in the campaign. Share your activity and photos with us using #VisibleGovernance on social media or by email to visible@nga.org.uk

Several organisations in the education sector have pledged to better recognise the importance of school and trust governance and make it more visible within their work by working with us on initiatives throughout the year and promoting the campaign. Find a full list of our supporters and what they say on the NGA news page.

Planned activities for the year include an awareness week (6 to 12 June), a resource pack to help your board be more visible at school and trust level, and a volunteer recruitment campaign with Inspiring Governance.
