Governance Reviews
It is now a requirement of all colleges, sixth forms and designated institutions funded by the DfE to undertake external governance reviews every three years. So, it is more important than ever to have expert guidance.
We believe in delivering sustainable improvement during the review and ensuring a support service is available afterwards.
New governance self-assessment activities should complement your existing processes and enhance your board's output. We have extensive experience in working directly with chairs and governors in a wide variety of situations, providing practical solutions to the challenges that Boards regularly face.
We also offer a wide range of governance services including:
- Post External Governance Review support
- Sourcing of governance support
- Interim governance support
- Governance Professional Mentoring and ongoing support
- Mentoring of Chairs and Principals
- Governance training
- Responses to queries arising from application of the Instrument and Articles
- Strategic options analysis for boards
- Advice on the application of the statutory and regulatory framework for FE governance, along with good governance principles
- Support with Board away days
- Support with Structure and Prospects Appraisal Processes
Our competitively priced governance reviews are entirely bespoke. Experts work alongside you, rather than undertaking a critical inspection to offer advice that could significantly enhance current work.

“Rockborn led our External Governance Review with efficiency and organisation; from the initial conversation, planning and coordinating schedules, to conducting the actual review. They ensured that clear policies and procedures were followed throughout the review and that all elements of the statutory guidance were met. The feedback and actions ensure that the College continues to maintain a high level of governance. The review was professionally handled and resulted in a beneficial process for our Corporation.”
