Our annual governance planners are designed to help governance professionals work effectively alongside chairs and school/trust leaders to plan the board’s work for the year ahead and construct meeting agendas.

The planners include required activity as well as best practice recommendations. Use the planner to help keep on top of important deadlines and schedule tasks to complete each term.

There are two versions: for maintained schools and academy trusts. Each planner highlights statutory expectations and includes links to resources to support effective governance.
