Committees

These pages provide information of the College Committee structure and the formal terms of reference and compositions of all of the established committees and groups, with their membership as at October 2010.

Committees in the College are, conventionally, divided between the statutory functions of the Governing Body (governance, finances, staffing etc) and the Academic Board’s management of academic business (admissions, standards, teaching, research, assessment etc). The Governing Body has overall responsibility for the Governance of the College ensuring compliance with the College's Strategic aims.

Membership of the committees is determined in a number of ways and full details for each committee are available from Elizabeth Thussu (Clerk to the Governing Body)
