We're seeking a parent representative for our children’s committee
Parent governors of all academy schools within Central Bedfordshire can apply
We have a space for one parent governor representative on our Children’s Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee (OSC), and we're seeking applications from parent governors of all academy schools within Central Bedfordshire.
Find out more and apply [
].
Joining the committee provides an opportunity to give a voice to parents across Central Bedfordshire, as it is one of four overview and scrutiny committees responsible for reviewing service delivery and performance. Representatives have the opportunity to help to deliver policies and make recommendations to the Council’s Executive.
Among other things, parent governors make the Council aware of the main education issues which concern other parents. They attend the meetings of the Children’s Services OSC - which meets during the day, roughly every eight weeks, usually at Priory House in Chicksands - to act as a non-political voice, and then feedback on any discussions and decisions made at the meetings to parents.

Visit our website for a full role description and to apply [
