Webinar invitation and new guidance: supporting your board through COVID-19
NGA Webinar 2020
Supporting your board through the impact of Coronavirus (COVID-19)
To support your governing board in continuing essential business through the current Coronavirus pandemic, NGA invites you to join us for a webinar on Virtual Governance, and to read our new guidance on business continuity through these challenging times.
Members are invited to register for NGA’s webinar on
Virtual Governance: governing through coronavirus
Friday 27 March 2020
4.30pm to 5pm
This webinar led by Steve Edmonds, NGA’s director of advice and guidance, will explore in detail how to govern effectively during these challenging circumstances. It will cover operational priorities for school leaders, how boards should respond to these priorities and business continuity for governing boards. Participants will also be able to take part in live polls to get a sense of the governance community’s response to the circumstances.
Please register your place here and feel free to contact us if you have any questions or experience problems concerning this event.
To ensure that we can reach as many of our members as possible, we ask that only one representative per governing board attends the webinar to maximise the number of schools/trusts that can participate. Please decide who on your board will take part.

Business continuity and holding virtual meetings
This guidance covers business priorities and other business; the work undertaken by panels; taking urgent decisions; and holding virtual meetings successfully.
We have also made our GOLDline advice service available to all governing boards that have questions about maintaining their business in the current circumstances. You can contact GOLDline by emailling gold@nga.org.uk or by calling 0121 237 3782.
Yours sincerely,
