| AdminHistory | In 1909, when the London Day Training College became a School of the University, the College academic staff were established as a Board, although this term was not used in favour of the less formal term ‘Meeting of the Staff'. Initially it comprised all full-time members of the teaching staff together with the head teachers of the demonstration schools and the Principal. Part-time teaching staff could be elected annually. It had no direct powers other than ‘to make representations to the College Council on all academic matters and on the management of the College generally'. When the College became part of the University in 1932, it was re-named the Academic Board, the first meeting under this new title taking place in Mar 1933. From 1940 its composition is given as ‘The Director, all Professors and Readers attached to the Institute, all Senior Lecturers on the staff of the Institute, the Schools Relations Officer , such Lecturers on the staff of the Institute as the Board may by resolution appoint to be members of the Board, together with three other teachers of the Institute appointed annually by the Board on the nomination of the full-time teachers of the Institute who are not members of the Board.' With the introduction of the new administrative structure in Feb 1949 it was replaced by the Central Academic Board (see IE/CAB). |
