Welcome to Milton Keynes Governor Services. We work closely with governors and headteachers to maintain and improve the quality of education and the standards of achievement in our schools. This site is designed to support existing and prospective governors in Milton Keynes.

Governing bodies play a major role in assisting schools to provide high quality educational opportunities for pupils and a rich learning environment that reflects the needs and wishes of the local community.

The Governor Support Service provides a range of services to governing bodies and individual governors to enable them to contribute effectively and confidently to the work of their school.

The Governor Support Service

Milton Keynes school governors work in partnership with headteachers and staff to ensure that all pupils receive a quality education and have every opportunity to develop as individuals.

We need people from all areas of Milton Keynes to become governors. If you have the enthusiasm, time, interest and commitment then you could meet this challenge. Schools across Milton Keynes vary considerably from modern, purpose built schools to village schools and schools of character. If you decide to become a governor you will need to think about what type of school you would like to be a governor of - nursery, primary, secondary or special. Schools also vary in size from under 50 children on roll in the smallest school to approaching 2000 in the larger secondary schools.

The time you devote can vary widely, depending on how involved you become and what needs doing.

There are no formal qualifications required to become a school governor.

The Governor Support Service arranges a wide range of training and development opportunities that are designed to provide governors with relevant and up-to-date information and skills to enable them to fulfil their roles effectively and confidently.
