Temporary sponsor governors

18.—(1) A “temporary sponsor governor” is a person appointed to be a member of a temporary governing body of a new school in accordance with paragraph (3).

(2) “Sponsor” in relation to a school means:

(a)a person who gives or has given substantial financial assistance (which for these purposes includes benefits in kind) to the school other than pursuant to a statutory obligation; or

(b)any other person (not being otherwise represented on the governing body) who provides or has provided substantial services to the school.

(3) Where a new school has one or more sponsors, the temporary governing body may appoint one or two temporary sponsor governors, nominated in accordance with paragraph (4).

(4) Where the temporary governing body intends to appoint temporary sponsor governors, it must seek nominations for such appointments from the school’s sponsor or, as the case may be, from one or more of the school’s sponsors.
