The Governing Body

The Council of Management's Committees

The Education Committee

The Education Committee oversees educational policy at Port Regis with particular emphasis on academic standards, policies and planning, and educational resources.  It offers advice and expertise to the Headmaster and the Director of Studies.  It reports formally to the full governing body.

The Education Committee meets once a year for a full day, usually in September.  Members of the committee receive detailed reports before the meeting from every academic department.  They listen to two or three presentations from selected departments, meet Heads of Department at lunch and discuss with the Headmaster and the Director of Studies relevant academic issues.

The Committee comprises:  Tony Beadles (Chairman),Vicky Scarborough, Roger Trafford, Maureen Willson and Mark Vaughan-Lee (ex officio).

The Finance and General Purposes Committee (F&GP)

In addition to occasional ad hoc meetings, the F&GP meets once a term and considers in detail papers prepared by the Headmaster and Bursar respectively projecting, over various time scales, pupil numbers, income and expenditure, and cash flow, and subsequently reviews the school’s actual performance against those projections.  The F&GP also considers recommendations and proposals for salaries, debt recovery, and capital expenditure projects, as well as oversees property issues and certain regulatory matters, such as Health and Safety, Charity law and Company law, where these impinge upon the school.  The F&GP meets the auditor and reviews the draft annual accounts, and is able to spend more time and to go into greater detail on financial matters, than is available to the full Board of Governors.  The minutes of the F&GP meetings are put before the Governors and represent recommendations to that body.

Current membership of the F&GP consists of:- Ivar Grey (Chairman), Mark Vaughan-Lee, Patrick Balfour, Tony Beadles, Chris Holloway, Lucy Nelson, Anthony Cumine and Crispin Simon with the Headmaster, the Bursar, the Estate Bursar and professional advisers in attendance.
