- oversee the financial performance of the school and making sure its money is well spent
- holding the school leader to account to ensure that every pupil has the best possible education

To fulfil this role you need to be able to:
- attend regular Board meetings and Committee meetings where appropriate
- visit the school
- do some background reading
- take part in induction training and ongoing development
