Dedicated support is provided to all governors in Rhondda Cynon Taf. Governors are one of the largest groups of volunteers promoting learning opportunities, encouraging the children and young people of the Authority to reach their full potential.
Rhondda Cynon Taf has 3 Nursery, 112 Primary, 19 Secondary and 4 Special Schools. Governors play a vital role in the life and work of our schools, and this is recognised throughout the education system. The Becoming a School Governor document| will explain in detail the role and responsibilities of school governors.
Training courses and opportunities are offered with no cost to governors. Some options for Governor Training are:-
-
Our current Governor Training - Summer Programme 2012
-
It may also (subject to demand) be possible to offer ‘tailored’ training courses to individual governing bodies, or to clusters, on any topic of your choice.
-
