Agenda item
APPOINTMENT OF LA GOVERNORS
Minutes:
The Cabinet Member considered applications received for Local Authority 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/the member(s) who were governors in the case of Secondary Schools.
It was also noted that Local Authority Governors are appointed for 4 years and where the vacancy has 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 reported 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 the governorship becoming oversubscribed, the Council may stipulate which LA Governor must then stand down.
The Principal School Governance Officer clarified to the Cabinet Member that since the publication of the meeting documentation, one additional vacancy had arisen for Penrhos primary school.
RESOLVED that, in order to meet statutory obligations for filling vacancies on Governing Bodies and having considered the applications received, the following appointments be made to vacancies for Local Authority Governors from 01 September 2022 onwards unless otherwise stipulated:-
