Local Governing Committees are required to meet formally a minimum of three times a year. Meeting dates are usually set well in advance and meetings generally last between two and three hours. Governors are expected to be well prepared for these meetings and attendance is expected, with apologies only for good reasons. Some Local Governing Committees will also have an annual ‘away day’ type event to review the previous year’s strategy, and to set the following year’s priorities.
