Governance, Policies & Compliance Issues
Legislation knows no end. All education institutions, whether independent or state-maintained, face a daunting task complying with the ever more complex regulatory requirements.
However governance is more than just compliance. It is the cornerstone of the organisation and impacts on all aspects of the way it is run. Furthermore, the institution will be inspected and judged on the quality of its governance on a regular basis.
Many things contribute to effective governance. From recruitment of governors, managing information, identifying the responsibilities of governance and management, decision-making processes, to simply planning and running meetings.
Stone King can help you with:
- Advice on good procedure
- Developing and reviewing policies
- Securing that the ethos of the institution flows from good governance
- Training, geared to your needs or, if you want to spread the cost, in conjunction with other institutions

In their final comments the judges said 'Stone King place charity work at the centre of their practice and having concluded the apparently seamless integration of two highly renowned charity teams they deserve top marks for entrepreneurship and innovation.'
