New role of school governor

I have just taken on the new role of a school governor (responsible for raising standards at the school by helping take strategic decisions) at the Alfred Sutton school -- there are 15 of us in total and a few vacancies. It all came about because I had been campaigning on road safety outside the school and one of the existing governors informed me that there was a community governor vacancy. She sent me some information, I thought it sounded interesting and useful and so I applied.

At this stage it feels a bit daunting, but the other governors that I have met seem very supportive which helps.
