Academies Bill [HL]

I have also been a school governor in one form or another for getting on for 40 years. Training courses for governors are run not only by local authorities but also centrally, and they are quite detailed courses. There is also a training guide on the web. The noble Lord might like to look at the Department for Education website where he will find that under "governors" there is a sort of teach yourself course to show you what you should know to become a good governor.
