What is the process for dealing with non-attendance at meetings by governors?
A. The LA has a procedure in place to deal with non-attendance at governing body meetings at schools who have bought into the clerking service. The Governors’ Support & Advisory Service monitors attendance and after six months non-attendance, from the date of first non-attendance, at the request of the governing body, a letter is sent to the governor informing them that they will be disqualified. There may be exceptional circumstances involved which need to be relayed to the Chair. If there is no response after two weeks, then the governor is removed.
