From £120

This Governors' Self-Review Questionnaire was developed by Together People for use in External Reviews of Governance.

The survey is available on-line for either governing bodies or local governing boards to use for their own internal periodic review for only £120 per survey for each governing board, body or local governing council. We have also have a specific version for a MAT Board to conduct it's own self-review by the board directors.

If you are a Multi-Academy Trust that would like to use the survey across your governance structure please contact us for pricing.

We also now have a comparative report that means if you have used the self-review questionnaire previously you can compare your current results to the previous survey to easily identify where you have improved. This costs an extra £15 - a total of £135 per survey.

The Local Governing Board version of the survey now includes an option for respondents to mark questions as "Not Applicable under Scheme of Delegation", making the survey far more flexible for different arrangements and accountabilities.

In conjunction with Nottinghamshire RC Diocese we have developed an optional "Catholic Life" Section of the questionnaire which can be used for Catholic Multi-Academy Trust boards.



Governors' and MAT Board Skills Audit Questionnaire

Only £140

Our Governors' Skills Audit Questionnaire for school governing boards/bodies was developed by Together People as an alternative to other tools available and specifically so that completion of the survey could be done on-line.

Governing boards can use our online questionnaire for their own internal skills audits for only £140 per survey for each governing board, body or local governing council. This provides a summary report of results and includes an individual 'Record of Answers' for each governor.

We also have a version for a MAT Board to conduct it's own self-review by the board directors.

If you are a Multi-Academy Trust that would like to use the survey across your governance structure please contact us for pricing.

Chair's and MAT Chair's 360° Feedback Questionnaire

Stacks Image 88

Only £130

The most recent addition to our suite of tools is the Chair's 360° Feedback Questionnaire. This allows you as a Chair of Governors to run your own 360° Feedback process to assess where you can further develop your skills as Chair.

The survey is split into two components: a Self-Evaluation that you complete yourself and a second survey that your governors complete (including the clerk). The results from both are then brought together in a RAG-rated summary report.

Because the survey is online and managed by Together People your governor colleagues can be confident that their answers remain anonymous as you will not receive any information that let's you tie back answers to individuals.

We now also have a MAT-level version for Chairs of MAT Boards.

The Chair's 360° Feedback Questionnaire is available for £130. Payment is normally arranged via invoicing your school or the MAT.
