As detailed in the DfE’s External Governance Reviews: Guide for FE College Corporations and Designated Institutions, it is a requirement that all Further Education Corporations undertake an External Governance Review every 3 years. The External Board Review (EBR) for Hull College, conducted between December 2023 and May 2024, evaluated the Board's effectiveness across three core dimensions: Composition, Structure, and Interaction. The review found that Hull College's governance is robust, with significant strengths in leadership quality and business acumen. However, the Board needs to focus on enhancing ethnic diversity and student engagement to ensure it fully represents and serves the community. Key recommendations include recruiting a student governor, improving the diversity of the Board ,and enhancing the scrutiny of risk management practices. The overall conclusion is that Hull College’s Board is highly effective, making a consistently positive impact on the College's strategic goals and outcomes.
Are you interested in shaping the strategy and character of your local Further Education college? Here at Hull College, we are always interested in hearing from members of the community who wish to serve on our Board of Governors.
A Governor is a voluntary, unpaid role but there are many rewards that come with it - the opportunity to gain Board level experience, to share your expertise and perspective in a meaningful and rewarding environment and to develop new skills that will benefit your own career.
We welcome all applications but are currently particularly interested in individuals with experience or knowledge in Engineering, working with young people (including SEND) and LGBT+ Communities.
