Agenda item

Director of Community and Children’s services.

Members received a report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services regarding the Governor Appointments Update.

Those present noted movement in Newham Collegiate Sixth form (NCS) and as well as a number of vacancies in the City of London Academies Trust’s local governing bodies and commented that April may be a good time to communicate the elected Member vacancies given the Court of Common Council elections scheduled to take place on 24 March 2022. The Deputy Chair suggested that the Livery website, which received a high level of traffic, would be a good place to advertise vacancies.

There followed a discussion about the recruitment process, with Members agreeing that there should be a focus on diversity when recruiting for governor positions.

RESOLVED, that:

the report be noted.
