Appointments to Academies

8 June 2012

 

In anticipation of the next set of City Corporation appointments to the City Academy Boards of Governors, in consultation with the Policy and Resources Committee, we have reviewed the current process with a view to creating a more efficient and effective arrangement.

 

We recognise that current appointments expire at the same time and appointments are not made in accordance with the procedures for appointments to outside bodies. We are proposing to adopt these procedures and phase the next set of appointments to all Academy Boards to ensure that a situation does not arise where all appointments expire without renewal. To adopt a more efficient approach for non-City Corporation Member appointments, we are also recommending that the Court delegates its power in this respect to the Community and Children’s Services Committee.

 

A printed and circulated report thereon has therefore been submitted and we commend the recommendations to you.
