Governors
The Role of the Governors
Expectation of governing bodies and their leadership is significant. OFSTED are clear about the importance of strong, effective leadership. Governors are appointed by a variety of means, but once appointed are expected to be of equal status and responsibility. They play a vital role as the school works through the difficult environment common to much of the public sector, which is how to deliver continuing improvement whilst managing within a diminishing financial resource. Being a member of the governing body requires knowledge of both board-level strategic leadership skills and corporate governance.
The Brodetsky Governing Body is made up of 7 members; 4 members are appointed by the Brodetsky Foundation Trust, 1 member is the Head Teacher, 1 member is appointed by the Local Authority and 1 member is an elected parent governor. There is also scope for the governing body to co-opt 4 additional members for a year, should it be required. Currently there are 2 subcommittees of the governing body, to which certain functions are delegated. The structures of the committees and chairs (in bold) are below:
Teaching, Learning & Inclusion: Rachel Gould, Jason Broch, Susy Hardacre, Dan Cohen
Resources: Carolyn Glynn, Adam Baxter, Susy Hardacre
It is expected that each governor will be part of one or more of these subcommittees as part of fulfilling the role.
The current membership of the Brodetsky Governing body is:
Dr. Jason I Broch, Chair of Governing Body (Foundation Governor)
Mrs. Carolyn Glynn, Vice Chair & Chair of Resources (Foundation Governor)
Cllr. Dan Cohen, Chair of Limudei Kodesh (Foundation Governor)
Mr. Adam Baxter (Foundation Governor)
Rabbi Jason Kleiman, (Foundation Governor)
Mrs. Charlie Kelsey Interim Executive Head Teacher
Mrs. Rachel Gould, Chair of Teaching and Learning (Parent Governor)
