Introduction
Welcome to the Training and Development Programme for 2021/22. This booklet gives details of
the pre-planned programme for the year which will be delivered through a blend of venue based
(face-to-face) training and webinars. Please check GovernorHub and correspondence from Governor
Services for up to date information in relation to face-to-face training which may be subject to
change in line with Government advice.
The pace of change in education is very fast and so we will, of course, be adding additional events, briefings
and topics throughout the year to support governing bodies and to ensure access to a current and relevant
training offer.
To get the best value from this broad and comprehensive training offer, governing bodies should regularly
review their performance and level of skills or knowledge to ensure the board can deliver effective
governance that is focussed on pupils and school improvement. We suggest that the governing body
conducts a skills audit and updates it regularly. There is a governing body self evaluation tool and example
skills audit on our website to support this.
This training and development programme supports the designated training governor lead by enabling a
training plan for the governing body to be drawn up. The plan should focus on what the governing body needs
to ensure effective governance as well as what courses governors want to attend. This programme has been
structured in three main sections; courses for those new to governance, courses for those with a designated
leadership role and courses relevant to committee membership or those with a designated responsibility.
By choosing to be a subscriber to our provision you are helping to ensure that you will be able to access the
breadth and quality of the support service. Even if you think that your training needs are likely to be less this
year, by supporting us through taking out a subscription to our services, this will help to make sure that we
can maintain the current level of provision for those times when you do need it.
As well as access to the range of training courses within this programme, subscribers receive access to
the following advice and support services:
• Whole governing body training session at the school;
• Fast, reliable, responsive, friendly support by email, telephone or in person to all those involved in
governance in schools, academies, and education centres;
• Termly e-newsletters, fortnightly updates and guidance documents;
• Knowledgeable, sensible advice based on many years of working in governance;
• Comprehensive website of resources and information;
• Extensive databank of policies, documents and guidance linked to national regulations;
• Topical ‘What’s new?’ area and specialist areas for clerks and Development and Training Governors on
our website;
• E-learning for crisis situations and key governor responsibilities.
Introduction
3
Governing bodies can also purchase:
• Clerking services to individual schools, academies and education centres;
• Reviews of governance;
• An externally moderated Clerks’ Accreditation Programme;
• Bespoke consultancy services to support development.
Developing Good Governance – a Guide for Development and Training Governors is available on
our website. Development and Training Governors will find it particularly useful, but it has a lot of
relevant information for anyone on your governing body who is interested in such things as:
• information about skills audits;
• ideas for school-based induction;
• a suggested “route-map” through training for governors;
• tips for helping new clerks, chairs, vice-chairs and advice on relevant development and training in their roles;
• ways to identify training needs and get commitment to training;
• a strategy for ensuring the work of the governing body benefits from training attended;
• clarification of administrative procedures;
• Ofsted’s expectations of governing bodies.
We will continue to be as flexible as possible in responding to new developments and always welcome input
from governors on the content of our provision or individual events. The termly training programme will
highlight any additions or amendments to the courses on offer since this programme was printed. Up to date
information is also available on our website.
We hope this programme does meet your training needs but if you do have any comments or suggestions
please contact the Governor Services office or alternatively, our website has an easy to use message form.

The Accredited Clerk
Why become an Accredited Clerk?
The importance of professional clerking has never been greater. Schools have been given increased freedoms
and greater accountability and the government has recognised that the contribution professional clerking
can make to effective governance of schools is very significant. The Accredited Clerk (TAC) Programme is an
evidenced based assessment against national competence standards.
What is the difference between Training and Accreditation?
When people are learning a new skill, like driving, they undertake training to help them to develop the
necessary skills and knowledge. When they reach a competent level they take a ‘test’ to prove that they
are fully competent. Accreditation is an assessment process that enables clerks to undertake self-directed
learning, and to develop and demonstrate professional practice. That practice is evidenced through an
assessed portfolio tested against national standards.
What does the programme entail?
The standards are built around the key elements of the clerk’s role as follows:
• Administration practice • Performance and professional development
• Educational awareness and principles of • Enabling effective governance
legal knowledge
• Supporting the company secretary (optional for
• Supporting and advising a governance body academy and free school clerks)
• Communication and relationships
The programme involves attending a briefing, and candidates have access to programme resources including
guidance on how to build a portfolio against competence standards. Candidates are allocated a mentor or
assessor who will provide support and advice throughout the programme. Portfolios are internally moderated
and there is external quality control of the assessment process and certification. Successful candidates achieve
a Level 3 certificate in Clerking for Governance Bodies in Schools and Academies (awarded by SFJ Awards).
It is important each clerk has the support of both the chair of the governance board and the headteacher as
they will be asked to complete a short questionnaire as an essential part of the process.
Participation in the Accreditation Programme is a requirement for clerks who are employed by Hampshire
Governor Services. Clerks employed independently by schools and academies are encouraged to participate.
