Governing Thoughts: September 2010

http://governingthoughts.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html

A blog (mostly) about the issues arising from my involvement as a school governor. Friday, 17 September 2010. It's all over now - or perhaps 'for now'. Well, last week I resigned both of my governorships. Sometimes, you just have to focus on other things and I would rather not do the role at all than simply turn up every few weeks for a meeting and then * * * off again - for me It's a full committment or nothing. In a new environment. So, no more entries for a while - be well and keep up the good work.
