The presence of Link Governors provides and additional source of evidence upon which governing decisions can be made. This additional evidence should enable the Governing Body to better challenge information presented by the school and also better support the school to meet its strategic object. The role of the 'Link Governor' is not to supervise or manage school staff; this is the responsibility of the Head Teacher and senior staff.
