What鈥檚 the commitment for board members?

Abi Plowden, Governor

Board membership is designed to fit around your existing work and personal commitments, with meetings and responsibilities planned well in advance.

Abi Plowden has been a governor since 2023. She says:

鈥淏eing a governor for 91吃瓜网 is a privilege. It is an honour to participate in many events such as student performances and celebrations for the Duke of Edinburgh鈥檚 Awards.

The role offers time to meet staff and students and play an active part in college life, and allows me to utilise the skills I have in my profession and also develop new ones.

Abi continues 鈥淭he College offers a comprehensive continued professional development programme. I have been given many opportunities, including learning Makaton. Staff and fellow governors answer questions and provide full support from the start. We plan commitments well in advance, making the role manageable alongside home and work life.

91吃瓜网 is much more than a further educational college, and I am proud to be part of it.鈥�
