Programme Summary

Our governance programmes are centred around ensuring that all academy staff undertake statutory training and that our governors are well-trained to undertake their roles.

Our statutory training for all staff includes

  • Annual safeguarding and child protection training, inc Prevent
  • Keeping Children Safe in Education – in line with annual updates
  • Data protection/GDPR training at least every 2 years
  • Health and Safety
  • First Aid and medical conditions (select staff)

At induction and then annually thereafter, we ask trustees and governors to complete safeguarding training and data protection training as a minimum. Governors also undertake specific training related to their key responsibilities at Great Schools Trust.
