Apart from a small proportion of mudflat and water to the east, the 29 km2 of the Parish is about half used for farming with a fifth heathland and a fifth woodland.

THE PURBECK SCHOOL IS SEEKING NEW GOVERNORS

 

The Purbeck 11-18 Academy School invites you to put yourself forward as a Governor as vacancies are anticipated over the next year. 

 

You will have the opportunity to make a positive contribution to the life chances of our young people

 

 

The school is part of the Wessex Multi- Academy Trust of high performing Dorset schools and the Trust is the over arching legal body for the school.  The Governing Body provides challenge and support for the school. The school is fully subscribed and results are above expectations.

 

 

You do not need have to have work experience in the education sector. We welcome potential Governors who have experience in one or more areas such as finance, personnel, buildings, business or other skills or you may have past experience as a governor. We would like people who know their communities well and live in the catchment area which includes the Isle of Purbeck, Wool, Lulworth, Bovington and Wareham.

 

The Governing body meets about 7 times a year and governors are also asked to adopt an area of interest which is in the School Development Plan. Those new to the role will be given training and a DBS check will be required. The role is unremunerated.

 

If you would like to find out more please ring Steve Clarke Vice Chairman for an informal discussion on 01929 480095.

 

Expressions of interest in the role with your contact details and experience are sought by 30 June. These should be sent to the Clerk, Mrs Karen Hall at Khall@purbeck.dorset.sch.uk
