(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations set out the training requirements for governors at maintained schools in Wales. The required content of the training is set out in documents 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 makes provision about training for the chair of a governing body. It sets out the time period for, and the exemptions to, the completion of the training. A chair who is required to complete the training, but fails to do so within the time period is to cease to hold office as a chair of any governing body until the training is completed.
Regulation 4 makes provision about induction training for newly appointed governors. It sets out the time period for, and the exemptions to, the completion of the training. A governor who is required to, but fails to complete the training within the time period is suspended from the governing body until such time as the training is completed. If the governor remains suspended for 6 months then that governor is removed from office.
Regulation 5 makes provision about school performance data training for governors. It sets out the time period for, and the exemptions to, the completion of the training. A governor who is required to complete the training, but fails to do so within the time period is suspended from the governing body until such time as the training is completed. If the governor remains suspended for 6 months then that governor is removed from office.
Regulations 6 and 7 amend Schedule 5 to the Government of Maintained Schools (Wales) Regulations 2005 and Schedule 7 to the Federation of Maintained Schools and Miscellaneous Amendments (Wales) Regulations 2010. Those Schedules are amended to include failure to complete the training required under these Regulations as a reason to be disqualified from holding the office of governor at a school. They also provide that a person who has been disqualified must not be appointed or elected as a governor until that person has completed the required training.
