Report by Director of Education and Skills.
The Committee are asked to approve the nomination of Authority School Governor as set out in the report. Additional documents:
Decision: The function of the nomination of school governors to maintained schools and academies is delegated to County Local Committees (CLCs) as it enables county councillors to maintain a valuable link with the schools and helps promote to the wider public the important role of school governors.
Under the Education Act 2011 local authority governors are nominated by the local authority but appointed by the governing body. The CLC can nominate any eligible person as a local authority governor, but it is for the governing body to decide whether their nominee has the skills to contribute to the effective governance and success of the school and meets any other eligibility criteria they have set.
At its meeting on 11 June 2019 the North Chichester County Local Committee approved the following nominations under the 2012 Regulations:
Nomination for appointment:
• Ms Barbara Murrell to Camelsdale Primary School for a four-year term

Talk With Us To invite questions from the public present at the meeting on subjects other than those on the agenda. The Committee would encourage members of the public with more complex issues to submit their question before the meeting to allow a substantive answer to be given. Minutes: 11.1 The Chairman introduced the item and advised that the open forum was an opportunity for comments and questions to be raised on items not already on the agenda, and over which the County Council has jurisdiction. The following issues were raised, and responses made.
· Councillor and Westbourne Resident, Roy Briscoe, expressed concerns after he received several reports that the pupils at Little Green School have been damaging the fabric of the Grade 2 listed building. Members agreed to investigate this issue and with the possibility of the local member writing to the school if the building is no longer under our control. · Local resident asked what the current situation was with ‘Velo South’, would there be a plan for another one? – Members confirmed that there is no plan for one in 2019 and that this is very unlikely to even return to West Sussex. Nick gave some information on the ‘Major Events Protocol’ and how this would protect from previous issues experienced in 2018. ·
Local resident asked how as a committee the advertising and
awareness is raised for the CLC meeting’s, as the turnout is
so small it was disappointing. · Local Resident asked if members were aware of any new plans for rural policing and the possibility of more PCSO’s. Members agreed that there was not enough rural coverage and Katie Bourne has committed to upping the number of PCSO’s in these areas.
