I’m clearly late to the party but just looked up @UKGovChat. What a great idea! @5Naureen @JaPenn56
A curriculum reveals a lot about a school's ethos, priorities and values. It's something that those governing should be talking about says Amanda Spielman @Ofstednews #NGAconf
‘What is important is that schools know their pupils and the barriers they face’. Absolutely. But also the potential assets: identity, culture? Spotlight on disadvantage #NGAConf
Snatched conversation about the thinking NGA is doing on role of local governing bodies in stakeholder engagement (children, parents, communities). Looking fwd to hearing more. #ngaconf
#ngaconf Spotlight on Disadavantage workshop. "This is not a problem for school it is a problem for society." Is pupil premium funding the answer? Is quality teaching the answer? So many questions. Curriculum - is it accessible to all? #allourchildren #GoodGovernance
Calling other MAT governors: have you been involved in agreeing a vision for your school’s ethos and culture and, if so, how?
Looking forward to @NGAMedia conference next week. I hope I’ll hear about how to push for positive culture change in MATs. What about you?

@TtersMa @NGAMedia Indeed! I’ve realised that this is possibly the first governor conference / event where I haven’t been sucked into an existential crisis about the impossibility of governance (usually just before lunch!) Thanks @NGAMedia @amanda_spielman @AlisonMPeacock et al #ngaconf
#NGAconf Amanda Spielman. "Curriculum conversation must be about ALL children. Inspectors will consider this..."who misses out?" #allourchildren
HMCI: Pupil premium: yes, inspectors will consider your approach to spending. Beware of small cohorts. Do have conversations with staff, parents & pupils. Thank you Amanda for mentioning this: listening to the voices of stakeholders is the 4th core function of governance
Hurrah. HMCI reminds us of the importance of considering curriculum when carrying out the first core function of governance: setting ethos, vision & strategic direction. What knowledge, skills & cultural capital do you want your pupils to have? #NGAconf
Profession needs to think what the why as well as the what. Peer reviewed articles in the fabulous (my word!) Impact journal @AlisonMPeacock @CharteredColl #ngaconf
A radical & transformative agenda for change; respect for plurality of voices, growing a culture where differences of opinion are respected; clear recognition of common beliefs & values; recognition that we need life long learning @AlisonMPeacock #ngaconf
Discussing ‘measuring what you value’ with Paul Aber #ngaconf Thank you Paul for concrete ideas for how to cement ethos and vision into school improvement work. 😀
Governor / trustee role re risk: Check assumptions, seek clarity, ensure action @clare_collins #ngaconf
If the curriculum is a teaching tool, how about the concept of a Vision and Ethos Review as a school improvement tool? In our strategic role as governors, how do we support ethos-focused school leadership #ngaconf inspiring me with my PhD research questions 😀
Governance risks: lack of diversity, conflicts of interest, competency gaps, ?lack of accountability (academies) #ngaconf
#ngaconf Spotlight on Disadavantage workshop. "This is not a problem for school it is a problem for society." Is pupil premium funding the answer? Is quality teaching the answer? So many questions. Curriculum - is it accessible to all? #allourchildren #GoodGovernance
Such a fine balance to be struck between stretching and encouraging ambition amongst students or simply piling unnecessary pressure on in an already stressful time. Absolutely right to question the educational value of all types of data. Could we all use our time better? #NGAConf
How useful are predicted grades? What purpose do they serve? Similar questions about flight paths. Asks @amanda_spielman HMCI, Ofsted #ngaconf
A curriculum reveals a lot about a school's ethos, priorities and values. It's something that those governing should be talking about says Amanda Spielman @Ofstednews #NGAconf
@TtersMa @WirralGov @HoyleRosemary @mm684 @dogpaws23 Think it might be worth all parties agreeing how local level governors, heads, parents, communities etc will have input before MAT embarks on growth. Top down and bottom up communications essential
