We have one Parent Governor vacancy on our school’s Governing Body. I am writing to inform you of the election arrangements and to invite you to stand for election. Parent Governors are appointed for a four-year period, irrespective of whether their child/children remain in school during that period. The Governing body would particularly like to encourage any parent with financial and premises knowledge to apply, although this is not essential.
Parents who are willing to stand as a candidate for election will find attached a nomination form or one can be downloaded from the school website. The nomination form then needs to be signed by the candidate and two other parents. Parents of all children currently registered at the school are entitled to stand for election or to nominate others. For these purposes ‘parent’ includes a step-parent, guardian or other persons having parental responsibility.
Completed nomination forms must be returned to the school no later than 12.00 noon on Monday 29 th April 2024. It would be helpful if candidates would submit a brief statement about themselves. This will be distributed to all parents to help them to make their decision when voting.
As soon as possible following the closing date for nominations, if it is necessary to hold a ballot, all parents will be sent a ballot paper giving details of each of the candidates. Parents will be asked to indicate their preference as appropriate and return the ballot paper to the school office no later than the date shown. To comply with statutory regulations the ballot will be conducted in secret.
The results of the ballot will be posted on the school notice board and school web site immediately following the count.
