We worked with Phil Preston, our associate governance expert, to write this article.
Develop an action plan
Action plans help governing boards drive their own improvement, in the same way that schools develop their own action plans to improve areas that need it (like specific subjects).
What makes a good action plan?
An effective governor action plan:
- Is developed collaboratively with the school's senior leadership
- Links to the school improvement plan (SIP) or trust improvement plan
- Clearly outlines its aims and objectives
- Details the actions to be taken to meet those objectives
- Identifies who's responsible for completing each action
- Sets out clear milestones to measure progress
It can be a standalone document or it can be integrated into the SIP document itself.
