Minutes:

The Executive Board Member considered applications received for L.A. Governor vacancies within the county. It was noted that nominations had been invited from the Chairperson, Head teacher and Local Member(s) in the case of Primary Schools. It was also noted that L.A. Governors were appointed for 4 years and where the vacancy occurred as a result of an individual’s term of office coming to an end this was noted in the details for that particular person if he/she was seeking appointment.

The Principal School Governance Officer explained that, following the recent County Council elections, all newly elected County Councillors had been invited to nominate the Governing Bodies on which they wished to represent the Local Authority. It is county policy that all county councillors when elected may stipulate on which school governing bodies they will sit and their decision will take preference over ‘non-elected’ LA governors. Consequently, county councillors may nominate to serve as LA Governors on a school that does not currently have a vacant post. In the event of this category of governorship becoming oversubscribed, then governance regulations state that the shortest serving LA Governor must then stand down.

RESOLVED that, in order to meet statutory obligations of filling vacancies on Governing Bodies and having considered the application received, the following appointments be made to vacancies for LA Governors:-
