I am not a staff member but a parent governor, I have been for three years and feel that I have made a decent contribution, I went to training, do a good job as a link governor etc. But I am completely out of my depth in terms of what is expected of us in the present situation, with massive budget cuts, pressure to become an academy, staff redundancies, being asked to endorse a budget that I wkno will not mean a deficit within the next year, bauble two years if lucky. I am struggling to see the 'line' between making strategic long term decisions for the school (what we are supposed to do) and helping the school to stay just above the red. Any advice, support anyone could give me would be much appreciated.
