Governance Survey

The purpose of this survey is to identify effective practices and support needs so that we can better shape the service we provide for our governors across West Sussex.

You only need to complete one form per governing board.  Ideally this should be completed by the governing board. Please complete this on-line survey by the 16th July. If you would like an electronic copy of the survey so that you can view it during your discussion, please do not hesitate to request one by emailing governorsupport@westsussex.gov.uk.

We have endeavoured to make this survey short and as straightforward as possible to complete. There is space at the end for governors to provide feedback around points not covered in the survey.

Many thanks in anticipation of your help.
