To me it just means they want to bring in people with specialist skill sets.

 

For instance if the school field was a muddy bog, they may co-opt a Governor who is a drainage contractor , or retired drainage contractor.

 

They can’t bring in people who will just vote a certain way to back up their cronies.

 

In theory….

The local school are looking for co-opted governors. I've a feeling that means you can become a govener if your face fits, or have I got it wrong?

It might well be they can’t find anyone else to do the job. Parish councils work this way to when no one wants to join.

I think your right though it just leads to a room of people with the same ideas with no one to tell them they are being bonkers!
