Social Sciences - Education / Pedagogy / Schulwesen | | English term or phrase: governor | In einem Artikel über die Renovierungsaktion in einer Grundschule bin ich über diesen Begriff gestolpert.
Hier der genaue Kontext: "The headmistress, teachers, GOVERNORS ad most importantly the children, were all overwhelmed by the changes when they returned to school."
Es geht um eine Schule in Großbritannien.
Kann mir jemand von Euch erklären, ob es sich dabei um eine Funktion innerhalb der Schule handelt (die es bei uns nicht gibt), oder ob ein Offizieller der Gemeinde gemeint ist???
Vielen Dank für Eure Hilfe ;-) |

"Schulvorstand" wäre mein bester Vorschlag, vielleicht kommt ein besserer.
