Frequently Asked Questions


Who are the workshops suitable for?

A: These workshops are aimed at individuals who want to expand their knowledge of managing the business aspects of the school such as resources, funding, risk management and school buildings/facilities. They are intended as an addition to the CSBM, DSBM and ADSBM focussing on specific aspects of the role of SBM. Thereby the focus is to enable SBMs to respond to their development needs in a much shorter time frame. The workshops will also be of potential interest and value to other senior school leaders and school governors as well as those who are considering a career change.
