Our small, friendly village school is seeking a suitable individual to support the work of our dedicated Governing Body.
The ideal candidate will be self-motivated, flexible and able to organise meetings (including on-line provision), prepare agendas, accurately record minutes and disseminate information in a timely manner. Excellent written and verbal communication skills and a good degree of IT literacy are essential, as is the ability to work from home to complete administrative and research duties. The successful candidate must also be able to maintain confidentiality and impartiality.
The clerk is required to attend a minimum of nine meetings in school, spread across the year. Meetings are usually held in the evenings. In addition, attending further working group meetings may be required.
Previous clerking experience, knowledge of Governing Body procedures and an understanding of educational legislation is desirable. This is not essential as full training can be offered. Our priority is to find someone who can work as part of a team and who is willing to learn.
The successful candidate must be available to start as soon as possible.
Prospective applicants who require further information or an informal discussion regarding the post are invited to call the school on and your details will be forwarded to the Governing Body. Email enquiries are also welcome:
