This support is available to schools on a subscription basis for 2006/7 at a rate of £475 per annum, which includes the sum delegated through the Fair Funding formula.

The minimum levels of service that users can expect are defined in a set of guarantees that can be found in the document linked below:

This service is intended primarily for head teachers and governing bodies and their clerks.  These pages focus upon schools management.  Information about services specifically supporting governing bodies are available at the Governor Support pages.

Schools Management Support staff are available by telephone and in person, and may be contacted by e-mail.  Details are given in our Contacts pages.  We will involve other colleagues from within the Children, Young People and Families Directorate and external agencies as necessary.
