Membership
All members of the Executive Group.
The Chair of Governors of all schools not already represented by their headteacher.
Additional governors from the middle schools and college in order to ensure that 'post 9' education is fairly represented.
Other 'key' Headteachers or governors may attend meetings if there is an issue of particular interest to a school. However, each school will only have only one vote so any 'delegation' from a school can only cast one vote.
Meetings
Once per term.
A Chairman who is elected at the first meeting each year chairs meetings. Minutes are distributed to headteachers at all FCLP Schools.
