Report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services.
Minutes:
The Board considered an update report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services on the Education Strategy, and the following points were made.
· The City of London Corporation should ensure it was joined-up in its approach to the Great Fire of London anniversary, from the work of the Learning & Engagement Forum through to the work undertaken by the Culture, Heritage and Libraries Committee.
· Governor training organised by the Education Unit should be made available to members who were governors of Christ’s Hospital or King Edward’s Witley, members and staff who might be governors elsewhere, and also possibly to the Livery. In response to comments, the Education Policy Officer agreed to produce a short briefing on statutory training required for all governors, and to factor in training for Chairmen of Governors and a leadership challenge session into the existing programme.
· The Chairman noted the forthcoming launch of the School Visits Fund. The Town Clerk agreed to circulate details of the fund to members ahead of its formal launch.
