There's a governors position open in a nearby school and I've made

is/has been a governor of their local school? This is a primary
school FWIW...

Any pointers - or run away, screaming... !!!

Yes... Some of that is the "run away, screaming" stuff!!!

The school is/was in special measures following a pretty bad ofsted, but it's got a new head and things look good for it - just thinking of something to do in my local community..

Cheers,
