It is part of the brief of area representatives to feed back to their local forum items of interest from both HGRG and County Forum meetings. For more information visit the Hampshire Governors' Representative Group web page. This guide can do little more than make you familiar with HGRG, its purpose and its way of working. If your governing body is not represented at a local forum, you should now be aware that it has the right to be represented. You could ask why it isn't.
Governors have a responsibility to ensure schools know how and where they are being represented.
The most difficult task of HGRG is communication back to schools. They then depend upon school representatives to ensure that information from HGRG and County Forum gets back to each school. Local communication activity is therefore vital and HGRG is looking for new ways to facilitate this process. Governors in schools can help by supporting their representatives and giving them air time at governors' meetings. There is, however, a reluctance to add to the paper mountain governors face.
