The Corporation of Yeovil College

Further education colleges are incorporated bodies which are each controlled by a corporation (also referred to as a governing body or board of governors).  A corporation is a collective, strategic decision-making body which is responsible for:

  • determining the educational character and mission of the college
  • overseeing college activities
  • ensuring the effective and efficient use of college’s resources, the solvency of the college and the safeguarding of its assets
  • the appointment, pay and conditions of The Principal, other Senior Post Holders and the Clerk
  • setting a framework for the pay and conditions of all other staff

The Corporation of Yeovil College has a determined membership of 17 governors, including 2 staff governors and 2 student governors.  All governors are unpaid volunteers recruited from the communities which the College serves.  The Corporation works closely with the Principal, other Senior Post Holders and College Managers.
