"Northamptonshire County Council has benefitted enormously from our partnership with the School Governors’ One-Stop Shop. The committed and skilled volunteers they recruit have been able to make a significant contribution to the leadership of our schools. The free service they offer has helped the Council to support continued school improvement without committing additional resources for this activity."
