(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations set out within how many weeks a local authority must provide the governing body of a maintained school with a suitable clerk. They also set out the training requirements for the clerk to a governing body at maintained schools in Wales. The required content of the training is set out in a document published by the Welsh Ministers.
Regulation 1 provides that the Regulations will come into force on 20 September 2013. Regulation 2 contains the interpretation provisions.
Regulation 3 requires the local authority that maintains the school to provide the governing body with a suitable person to appoint as a clerk. A suitable person is either a governor support officer or someone who has completed the clerk training.The local authority must provide a clerk within 16 weeks of being requested by the governing body to do so and may charge a fee to cover the cost of providing the clerk.
Regulation 4 makes provision about the training of a clerk. It sets out that the training must be satisfactorily completed within 1 year of appointment as a clerk, or within 1 year of the coming into force of the Regulations.
Regulation 5 requires that if the clerk has not completed the training in accordance with the Regulations, the governing body must remove the clerk from office. A clerk removed from office may only be re-appointed when the training has been completed.
