Governance Module 7 – Leading the Vision and Mission

One of the first priorities for a board member is to understand the vision, mission and values of your school. It is your duty to uphold this, as it is set out in your Constitution, and to ensure the school’s vision is lived out in your community. This course will help boards in this important task.

Description


 

Course structure

The course is designed to be completed as a module that is part of the suite of governance training courses. However, boards can access individual topic modules as needed.

These short courses can be undertaken by individual board members, or be completed as a board together. The modules are kept short so boards can fit the training into their busy board calendars.

The training builds on the materials covered in the Board Induction Course, and this is a useful pre-requisite to the governance modules.
