Qualifications for a Commissioner

Pamela Absolum made this Official Information request to Ministry of Education

The request was successful.

From: Pamela Absolum

Dear Ministry of Education,
Jim Greening,
Group Manager,
Sector Enablement and Support,
Ministry of Education.

I would like a response as to what qualifications and what qualifies a person to be a Commissioner of a school?

What qualifications and what qualifies a Commissioner to sack the Board of Trustees and become the sole BOT and thus run and direct a school?

Example below is that of a person who years ago got a BA and the a nurse's qualification.

NO TEACHING QUALIFICATIONS OR EXPERIENCE AS A TEACHER, DP OR PRINCIPAL?
Other than being on the BOT of Marlborough Girl's College.

How does that fit with a commissioner's qualifications to run as a sole BOT, staff, pupils and community?

Acting with authority delegated by the Secretary for Education under section 78N(2) of the Education Act 1989, I appoint
Beverley Moore
as commissioner for Rangiora High School Board of Trustees.
This notice takes effect on the day of publication.
Dated at Wellington this 26th day of February 2015.
JIM GREENING, Group Manager, Sector Enablement and Support, Ministry of Education.

Yours faithfully,

Pamela Absolum
