The Corporate Director Education and Family Support presented a report which sought approval from Cabinet for the appointment of local authority governors to the school governing bodies listed at paragraphs 3.1 and 3.2.

He explained that the the one current local authority governor vacancy was detailed in table 1 of the report. The applicant met the approved criteria for appointment as a local authority governor and there was no competition for the vacancy.

RESOLVED: That Cabinet approved the appointments detailed in paragraphs 3.1 to 3.3.
