Areas of Practice
Governance Recruitment
Whether you are recruiting Trustees, Members, Chairs, specialist link roles, or governance volunteers for your hard-to-fill vacancies, Edu-Gov can assist with bespoke recruitment, headhunting, and hands-on, targeted executive searches from a recruitment specialist who understands school governance, school improvement, different governance structures and governance at all levels locally, regionally and nationally.
Governance Development
Our governance models are only as effective as the people and culture that underpin them. Edu-Gov delivers proactive governance reviews, change management interventions, and bespoke training, mentoring, and support for Chairs, Heads, Boards, LGBs, and committees to bring out the best in your governance volunteers.
Governance Leadership
Edu-Gov offers a professional chairing service that lasts a fixed, agreed-upon period to source, recruit, onboard, and develop local governance from the inside to challenge, support, and provide stakeholder engagement during your school improvement journey. Whether you are transitioning from one governance structure to another, improving what you already have, or require Chairing for an IEB, Edu-Gov can ensure you have the right people around the table by building and developing effective governance quickly and efficiently from creating entire new boards or committees, nurturing and finessing your existing governing body or Chairing and transitioning an IEB into a traditional governing board. Chairing in challenging situations, initiating positive cultural change and helping to stimulate effective community engagement are particular areas of expertise.
