Derby Governors Partnership

Derby and Derbyshire Governance Partnership (DGP) is part of the Derby Teaching School Alliance (DTSA). It is a broad and inclusive local partnership providing impartial face-to-face support to school governors and clerks to governing bodies from all school types and phases working closely with the National Governance Association (NGA).

We aim to build encouragement and support through focused and effective collaborative practice between governors and clerks that improves school governance and learning outcomes for all.
We will achieve this through fostering motivation and engagement in continuous improvement of school governance to achieve the very best teaching and learning.
We recognise that good and outstanding practice can be found in many places and contexts.
We believe that every school should have outstanding governance.
