composition of the board
| The overall minimum number of members of a governing board is currently 12 and the overall maximum is 20 within which there are specific categories of membership. The consequent balanced membership of governing boards ensures that they have the benefit of views from the whole community served by the college - students and staff, business, local authority and the local community. All governors are appointed as individuals - including those governors who are elected eg staff and student governors - and are not representatives of the organisations from which they come. The Principal of the institution is a member of the governing board unless s/he chooses not to be. |
