22 September 2015 Dear Parent/Carer,
Parent Governor Election
Notice of Election – September 2015 We currently have a vacancy on our Governing body for a Parent Governor. Parent Governors are elected by the parents of pupils at the school to serve a four year term of office. Governors play an important part in determining the direction of our school and act as a ‘Critical Friend’ to its leadership and management. The governing body is made up of people who have an interest in the school. It is vital therefore that the views of parents are represented. No particular experience is required although it would be useful to consider if you have any specific skills that you feel would enable you to support us. If any parents would be interested or would like more details could you please contact me via the school office. There is no firm commitment at this point. The closing date for nominations is Monday 5th October. If we receive more than one nomination the requirement is that an election be held and names of nominees would be put to all parents for a vote. Thank you for taking the time to consider undertaking this very important role at Bishop Martin School. Yours sincerely,
Mrs A Gray Headteacher Returning Officer for Governor Election
