School board of trustees - what is it? Regulations on the Board of Trustees of an educational institution (sample form).

L. Degtyareva

Head teacher. 2003. 1. S. 20-24.

After reading the article The Board of Trustees of the school: what is it for and how best to create it?*, I caught myself thinking that I could not immediately answer the question posed by the author in the title. Although, on duty, it seems that she should know the answer.

The fact is that in September 2000, at the school where my child is studying, at the initiative of the director and the parent committee, a Board of Trustees was created. The parents of my class elected me as their representative, because the circumstances of my life made me a housewife, despite the higher medical education. In addition, due to my natural energy and indifference, I took part with pleasure in the affairs and cares for the children of our class, and also, in the words of my fellow parents, I enjoy their trust. I won't go into detail about how the process of formation and development of our Council went, the important thing is that we have been living at the school for the third year already.

Not from a good life

To be honest, it was not created from a good life. From communication with parents of students from other schools, I realized one thing: today, to a greater or lesser extent, the vast majority of educational institutions are experiencing financial difficulties. Our school is no exception. According to the director, only two items are fully funded: wages for employees and meals for students. For everything else (repairs, furniture, teaching aids, household expenses, etc.), funds are allocated extremely irregularly and in very modest amounts, clearly insufficient for normal life. Therefore, despite the presence of an interesting, creative and highly qualified team of teachers, our school did not look very attractive. But the appearance, as they say, is not so bad. The bad thing is that teachers have to work somehow. And it is difficult to talk about the high level and quality of education if, like a hundred years ago, our teacher is standing at the blackboard with chalk and a rag. And even, by the way, sometimes there were problems with chalk, not to mention modern visual aids, video materials, the ability to reproduce multi-level tasks and various tests to identify gaps in the child’s knowledge and, as a result, the inability to help him in a timely manner.

Of course, our administration, headed by the director, knocked on the thresholds of various higher authorities, wrote many letters with requests to finance one or the other, but most often the answer was the same: Sorry, there are no funds yet. This is how we were faced with the need to create a Board of Trustees.

The salvation of the drowning is the work of the drowning themselves - this principle, perhaps, is best suited for our guardianship movement. It is the salvation, not support, development, improvement of the quality of education that parents of our school students are engaged in today. And if so, then, to the question: What is the Board of Trustees?, it is quite permissible to answer: this is an ambulance. Do you know when they call her? It is right when you cannot cope with the disease yourself and there are no improvised means to combat the disease. But after all, everyone knows that the ambulance is not engaged in the treatment of chronic, chronic diseases. She does not have such powerful tools in her arsenal, she is only called upon to ease the pain and perform some urgent actions. But all these measures are temporary, and for a full recovery it is necessary to undergo a long course of medical and restorative therapy. It is also known that a sick person calls an ambulance without fear and much thought, but the school principal needs to think hard, weigh the pros and cons before deciding to create a Board of Trustees.

Can't survive without each other

I can say one thing about our school director: it became easier and more fun for her to live with us, but she got more headaches. It is easier and more fun because parents have begun to make monthly trustee contributions to the school's off-budget settlement account. The headache is, first of all, the loss of autocracy: these funds cannot be distributed and spent at one's own discretion and without the knowledge of the Board of Trustees. And in financial matters, it’s not enough just to say: I want it that way, you need to defend your opinion, prove the correctness of your position and the justification of expenses. And this is patience, flexibility, the ability to compromise, logic and clarity of wording.

Sometimes an overburdened, overwhelmed director is pissed off by this state of affairs, but, bound by the same chain, bound by the same goal, we together learn the language of diplomacy and find the necessary solutions.

Why is this happening? Alas, today we cannot survive without each other. The educational process, in my opinion, is a very complex mechanism that has two main components: on the one hand, the director and the teaching staff, and on the other, the children studying at this school and their parents. In order for the educational process to be carried out qualitatively, there are many conditions, but the most important of them, it seems to me, is one - that these two forces do not end up on opposite sides of the barricades. If their confrontation begins, such a school, in my opinion, will not last long. If they become allies in a common cause - to make the quality of education high - success is quite likely.

It is the principle of mutually beneficial cooperation that we put in the basis of existence. Today, in our school, the director felt not only the bitterness of self-restraint in solving financial issues, but also the sweetness of expanding the administrative resource. Previously, having made a decision on his own, the director had to put it into practice only with the help of school employees. Now, having enlisted the support of the Board of Trustees (and, therefore, the parental community), she has gained more opportunities to implement the decision. So, the issue of security, school uniform, smoking ban, etc. was resolved at the school. In addition, the director has ceased to act as a constant petitioner, persuading parents to help the school in solving one or another sore problem. She left the task of explaining the need to support her native school to the shoulders of the Board of Trustees, which, if a general decision is made on the financing of a particular program, brings all the necessary information to parents. So, with the support of the parent community, some classrooms, halls, corridors and recreations were repaired, modern teaching aids, office equipment and much more were purchased, which not only transformed the appearance of the school, making it cleaner and more beautiful, but also somewhat changed the process itself for the better. education, made it possible to introduce new, more advanced teaching methods.

Requires inpatient treatment

Are Boards of Trustees required in all schools? Only each specific director can answer this question.

If he copes with his difficulties on his own and solves all school problems without outside help, then the answer is negative. Otherwise, it's worth considering. Today, the country has created such economic conditions for the survival of educational institutions that it is impossible to do without attracting extra-budgetary funds. The Minister of Education also speaks about this in his recent speeches in the media. Answering the question about the source of charitable donations, he reveals to us his vision of the mechanism for receiving non-budgetary aid to schools. It looks, in my opinion, very peculiar: someone who graduated from a school a few years ago, for example, in Voronezh or in some other city in Russia, and now lives, say, in Moscow, remembers his teachers with gratitude and provides charitable assistance to the school . This situation seems a little far-fetched to me. Why? Yes, because this someone should be a childless bachelor orphan, only then he will probably remember the school he graduated from long ago, since he does not need to support his family, teach his children (and in this case it is more logical to help the school where his own study) , and also not provide material support to pensioners-parents (after all, everyone knows that the size of the pension is below the subsistence level). Well, how many of your graduates with such data do you know, dear directors? No, of course, there are people who remember and love their past and, in particular, their native school. But there are only a few of them, and how many can they give and how often? But you know for sure that financial assistance should be regular, and not from case to case.

So the question is: Where to get trustees? - there is only one answer: among those parents who today teach their children in school and realize the value of education and who cannot acquire it for their children privately on an individual basis. It is these parents who need to be ignited with the common idea of ​​solving the problem of getting a good education together, by joint efforts, overcoming difficulties and eliminating problems. The only obstacle to achieving this good goal is the unwillingness of parents to transfer money to the school's current account. I wonder why? Do not immediately accuse someone of stinginess or shortsightedness. The unwillingness to be a trustee is explained simply: the state levies a single social tax, and as you know, education is just a social sphere. Consequently, the call to help the school sounds today as a desire to make repeated payments for the same type of service. But it would not be terrible if the state found ways to return funds allocated for charitable purposes, as is done in other countries where it is profitable to be a patron of the arts. Our state, however, decided to reduce the income tax rate for everyone, without making any distinction between philanthropists and those who do not want to have anything to do with it.

Today, many parents are concerned about the state's position on the issue of budgetary financing of education. Will any actions be taken to solve these problems not only at the expense of private investors, who may exist today, but tomorrow, as a result of some cataclysms (God forbid, of course, but remember the default of 1998), may disappear? What measures are being developed to alleviate the tax burden for those enterprises and organizations that want to benefit the school, and will it be profitable for the school to earn money on its own? Does the government have a large-scale state program to solve all these pressing problems?

A positive answer to this question was given after the approval of the Concept for the Modernization of Russian Education for the Period up to 2010. In my understanding, such a document should be a nationwide program of action to restore the responsibility of the state for the fate of the educational sector. But after reading the article on boards of trustees mentioned above, you begin to understand that the situation is somewhat different. It turns out that the Concept states that private funds going to education can increase from 1.3% to 2.5% of GDP. In fact, this means a double increase in charitable assistance to the school at the expense of parents' money. What happens? Will those emergency funds that the Boards of Trustees seek become almost the basis of funding? And where will the state budget funds allocated for education go? Or will the creation of boards of trustees for hospitals, nursing homes, kindergartens, etc., be recommended soon? Following this logic, the parents of schoolchildren will benefit from educational institutions, and the sick and their relatives will benefit from medical institutions? And if they are both at the same time, then who should be helped first and who second? I'm afraid that the situation will be brought to the point of absurdity. To all appearances, in order to prevent this from happening, the Law on Education stipulates the norm of state allocation of financial resources for the needs of education in the amount of at least 10% of the national income. But the compilers of the Concept kept silent about this. The issue of budget financing of education, in my opinion, is the most urgent, since the means and methods used in emergency care cannot replace inpatient treatment. Any doctor will say that such a replacement can be deadly for the patient and he will not last long on it.

These are all extremely serious questions, and they must be answered objectively. And this can be done only by carefully studying the above-mentioned Modernization Concept, but, frankly, like any layman, I do not read printed publications that publish such documents. But with numerous articles-responses criticizing the new order of the government, I got acquainted with attention on the pages of the Izvestia newspaper. In them, rectors of large and respected universities, innovative teachers, scientists from various research institutes directly related to pedagogy and education spoke with their comments on some points of this document, most of which were sensible and interesting. But, oddly enough, I did not come across a single note that would express considerations about the new Concept, signed by the direct conductors of the ideas of the government - an ordinary school principal or an official of an education authority at any level.

I would very much like to know their opinion on the Concept itself and on the course of its implementation.

Alexander ADAMSKY

On February 22-23, for the first time in the history of modern education in Russia, at the initiative of the Council for Federal Experimental Sites, a seminar will be held for chairmen of the boards of trustees of educational institutions.
The degree of importance that the government attaches to the creation of boards of trustees is evidenced by the fact that of the two days on the first day, First Deputy Minister A. Kiselev takes part in the seminar, and on the second - Minister V. Filippov. The organization and holding of the seminar was entrusted to the Institute for Educational Policy “Evrika”.

Goals and objectives of the boards of trustees

Everyone knows how long and painfully the “Regulations on Boards of Trustees” went through bureaucratic coordination. The presidential decree was almost declared invalid, and four scanty points remained from the detailed description of the council's activities, but, frankly, it may be good that instead of describing detailed regulations, we received a general blessing for the creation of boards of trustees. The main thing is an indication that its activities are determined by the charter of the educational institution.
Therefore, answers to two questions are now urgent: what can the board of trustees do and how to organize it?
Let's start with the first one.
The purpose of the creation of the board of trustees, in our opinion, is to strengthen the public management of the school, education in general.
In fact, the creation of boards of trustees today is one of the few institutions of civil society supported by the authorities in the school. There are two others - the school council and children's self-government. But the hands of the government do not reach them yet.
And the board of trustees became the subject of both presidential and government, and, of course, ministerial consideration. Apparently, therefore, he has every chance of becoming a real link between the state and society. And the achievement of this goal is of great pedagogical importance. Because it is a visually operating model of school life in civil society. In the civil sense, in the sense that the management of this life is carried out not by workers hired on behalf of citizens, officials from the state, but by the citizens themselves. In our paramilitary minds, the words “civil society” can evoke a completely different association: civilian means not military, peaceful. And in a sense, this is correct, because the institution of civil society is a form of manifestation by citizens of their peaceful, worldly interests and needs. And the state always fights with someone or for something, punishes someone or wins. Therefore, state departmental organizations are not really institutions of civil society and cannot be.
In this sense, it is ironic that the organization operating in Moscow on behalf of the Soros Foundation calls itself the Open Society Institute / Soros Foundation. But he is working, for example, on the implementation of the megaproject “Development of Education in Russia”, mainly with departmental, state organizations, for example, the Ministry of Education. Incidentally, this is a distinctive feature of many Western organizations, including charitable ones, operating in Russia. Declaring the principles of an open and civil society in their activities, they prefer to deal with ministries, regional administrations, that is, with decision makers, rather than with citizens. And in this sense, of course, the Open Society Institute is an institution as an institution. But the institution of an open society, an institution in which citizens can exercise their will and initiative, is most likely not. Of course, this does not apply to all Western funds, and I am not writing this at all in order to somehow reproach the Soros Foundation, which I have great respect for. But the fact is that from the very beginning of the creation of a network of school boards in Russia, we must understand that Western schemes and models, at least in the form in which they come to us, are not a visual teaching aid.
So, the main goal of creating school boards of trustees, we will consider the formation of public school management as an institution of civil society.
And the task of the board of trustees, and here we must be extremely frank, is, first of all, of course, to improve the financial situation of the school.

The higher the level of public administration, the higher the well-being of the school

At the same time, the hypothesis that we have to prove is the following: the higher the level of public school management, the higher the level of school well-being. And it would be a mistake to think that it is a matter of control over spending. This is not true. And it would be a mistake to make an association of overseers out of the boards of trustees. Rather, another metaphor is appropriate here: an investment committee that is looking for money and spends it wisely. Search for additional funding, as well as mediation between the school and the founder to implement the principle of “give and do not sin” are the two main working tasks of the board of trustees. If this premise is accepted, then the main qualities of the members of the boards of trustees become obvious: the ability to get money and the ability to spend it on educational purposes.
The prestige of being a member of the Board of Trustees lies in this. If a person has become the chairman of the board of trustees, this means that he is successful, that he has experience and the ability to raise funds for good purposes.
The post of chairman of the board of trustees of an educational institution is like an attestation, a public attestation of success and recognition of a person’s business and moral qualities.
Who should be invited to the board of trustees of the school?
From the experience of existing councils - in the Volgograd region, the village of Mikhailovka - the Federal Experimental Site "Pedagogical College", in Ust-Ilimsk - FEP-school No. 10, in the Krasnoyarsk Territory - a whole network of FEPs, in Izhevsk - FEP-gymnasium No. 56, a number of schools in Moscow, in other regions - it is clear that the most authoritative, the most successful, the most influential people should become trustees. This could be parents of students, or alumni, or people living in the area where the school is located. Or owners, managers of powerful and successful enterprises located in the location of the school.
The hard truth about the board of trustees is that if there are no such very, very authoritative and successful, influential and conscious in the area, there will be no board. And you don't have to create it.
The experience of the network of federal experimental sites shows that the board of trustees today is not a mandatory norm. It is not included in the staffing of the educational institution. We will try to create them, we will do our best to back up the organizational efforts of schools with normative documents of the federal level, to organize the education of trustees. But all this will work on one condition - if there is the same person in the foreseeable school space who can become a trustee.
Look for him - and the advice will be.

But how to act?

Here is the letter that came to our editorial office by e-mail.
"Hello! So at the school where my children study, they decided to create a board of trustees. They invited me along with other parents. How to organize the work, no one really knows. I got acquainted with the draft regulations. The main question posed by the school administration is: who will spend the money? Who will be the account holder and fund manager? The school is against the fact that the principal or any ITs command the funds. Can the board of trustees itself have its own account, which will accumulate sponsorship funds? Maybe you have information on how boards of trustees work in schools.
Sincerely, Noskov E.A., Member of the Board of Trustees of Educational Institution No. 71, Nizhny Tagil.
At our request, Minister of Education of the Russian Federation V. Filippov answered this question:
- On the scale of Russia, there can be no unambiguous answer. Well, for example, a rural school with 20-30 students and which, for its basic salary, cannot yet open its own account, does not even have a cashier and an accountant, so, of course, it is hardly worth creating for it separately in this case fund with your account.

In most cases, especially in large cities, boards of trustees must have their own funds. And preferably with a separate account, which is controlled by this fund. At some stage, intermediate, these may be funds within the school, but this is the initial stage. You can really influence the life of the school when you have leverage over the financial life of the school.
This was the answer of the Minister of Education of the Russian Federation V. Filippov to the question of E. Noskov, a member of the Board of Trustees of School No. 71 from Nizhny Tagil.
Let's add from ourselves.
The board of trustees collects money for the school, and this is his, the board, money.
Here is how T. Epanchintseva, executive director of the Center for Cooperation at the Local Level, who is developing a network of community schools, tells about the experience of training trustees:
“The board of trustees of the Parabelskaya school in the Tomsk region organized paid computer courses for adults - and this is a good way to replenish the public school fund. L. Mityuklyaeva, director of gymnasium No. 91 in Zheleznogorsk, talks about how the gymnasium and its charitable foundation discovered new diverse resources, including intellectual, informational, not only material, when they went beyond the school territory and began to work on involvement of the local community in partnerships. “We realized,” she says, “that the neighborhood community will actively help the gymnasium if we help it. We realized that it is impossible to create an ideal "microworld" in the gymnasium, it is necessary to improve life in the entire microdistrict, and this is in our power. Therefore, the gymnasium and the fund proposed to the residents of the microdistrict to create a public territorial self-government by electing councils of houses and the council of the microdistrict. Having done such a large-scale work with the local community, we have found new opportunities for cooperation with the city authorities and involved them in the implementation of our programs as partners. In particular, the city authorities took on a share of the work to create a public sports complex on the basis of our gymnasium.”
... Boards of trustees are not a magic wand, the school will not get rich overnight after their appearance. But we can definitely say that the school will become poorer and poorer if it cannot win over society. Not an abstract society, but real people - trustees.

The board of trustees in a preschool institution is a factor in ensuring the effectiveness of development.

manager

MADOU city of Nizhnevartovsk

DS №34 "Thumbelina"

Shcherbinina I.V.

For the full-fledged organization of work with children in the Kindergarten, it is not enough to have one wall, a rich subject-developing environment is needed, which includes modern modules, designers, environmental corners, mini laboratories, didactic materials, sensory rooms, sports corners, soft modules, that is everything that gives the child the opportunity to find a place to his liking, contributes to the development of creative, intellectual abilities.

Part of the management of a modern kindergarten is to involve various social institutions in solving the problems of the institution: parents, the public, which allows you to cope with the number of tasks for organizing the functioning of a modern educational institution.

We understand that kindergarten problems cannot be solved immediately and quickly. Analyzing the experience, drawing conclusions, we are ready to introduce everything new into the practice of our activities.

Today, close interaction with parents allows creating a developing environment that meets all modern requirements, improving the quality of education, and improving the image of preschool educational institutions.

To solve the problems of the kindergarten, the most daring pedagogical dreams can be translated into reality with the help of boards of trustees, on the constant help and support of which teachers can count.

The activities of the Board of Trustees in the PEI allow you to legalize sponsorship flows to the off-budget account of the PEI.

At meetings of the Board of Trustees, the Chairman and Secretary are elected, the Regulations “On the Board of Trustees” are approved, and an estimate of expenses is drawn up. Opportunities to attract extrabudgetary funds are being considered.

Spending of funds is directly controlled by the Board of Trustees. Accounting is 100% transparent and available to any parent.

To date, the administration of the kindergarten and most of the parents have already understood that at the moment the Board of Trustees is the most correct form of communication in the financial plan of the kindergarten with parents and sponsors - city enterprises that provide assistance.

It is no secret that more than 50% of the city's budget goes to education: capital and cosmetic repairs, purchase of equipment and furniture, food for children in kindergartens, salaries of educators and teachers. But there is still not enough money for everything.

And the work of the Board of Trustees just helps to strengthen the material base for the development of children.

And at the same time, if I refer to the collection of funds from members of the Board of Trustees, or parents who want to help, I make a reference to the legislation:

In accordance with the Federal Law of August 11, 1995 No. 135-FZ "On Charitable Activities and Charitable Organizations", charitable activities may be carried out in order to promote activities in the field of education. At the same time, charitable activities, according to the said law, are understood as voluntary activities of citizens and legal entities for the disinterested (gratuitous or on preferential terms) transfer of property to citizens or legal entities, including funds, disinterested performance of work, provision of services, provision of other support. Citizens and legal entities have the right to freely carry out charitable activities, individually or in association, with or without the formation of a charitable organization. All donations must be voluntary.

School fees. Legal?

This is the right of parents (legal representatives), not an obligation. Cash collection in educational organizations is prohibited. Funds are transferred to accounts opened with banks. Educational organizations are obliged to inform parents (legal representatives) about the intended use of voluntary donations at parent meetings, through the board of trustees, post information on the website of the educational organization, etc. In case of revealing facts of unreasonable, non-transparent "extortions" in educational organizations, parents (legal representatives) have the right to apply to law enforcement agencies

Accordingly, for the most part, the activities of the Board of Trustees should be aimed at raising funds from sponsoring organizations and formalized by a donation agreement, as well as considered and recorded in the minutes of the meetings of the Board of Trustees. For transparency in the expenditure of these funds, a Regulation is being developed in the PEI. Below is its example form.

Regulation on spending extrabudgetary funds

The financial resources at the disposal of the Board of Trustees and received by the Charitable Foundation for Preschool Educational Institution No. are distributed depending on their purpose as follows:

1. Charitable donations for the development of preschool educational institutions:

All funds received are spent on the development of the material and technical base of the preschool educational institution.

2. Charitable assistance to employees of preschool educational institutions:

62,5 % — for charitable assistance to group personnel;

25 % — for charitable assistance to employees of the preschool educational institution not employed in the group;

12,5 % — to pay for unforeseen expenses that arise during the month.

3. Charitable assistance to ensure the safety of children DOE:

All funds received are spent on charitable assistance to employees who ensure the safety of children's stay in the preschool educational institution.

4. Charitable assistance for the development of educational processes in preschool educational institutions.

62,5 % — for charitable assistance to specialists conducting the educational process in excess of the program;

37,5 % - for holding holidays, sports competitions, competitions and exhibitions.

Introduction

The basis for an optimistic view of the possibilities of guardianship in education can be the facts of the history of Russia. Today's attempts to revive guardianship reflect the public and state awareness of the need to create mechanisms to support the school.

The field of activity of the boards of trustees is: the development of a strategy for the development of an educational institution, carried out jointly with the school administration; control over the implementation of education programs and control over the use of budgetary funds; implementation of public relations. Experience shows that in the competition that began to take shape in the course of a decade of development of market relations and in the educational services market, those organizations that have formed around themselves structures that ensure the openness of the educational system - a constant external assessment, "a view from the outside", and actively participating in the development and resolution of school problems. Such structures include boards of trustees and other public organizations supporting the activities of an educational institution.

1. The Board of Trustees is a public form of management of an educational institution.

The Board of Trustees is one of the forms of society's participation in the management of education; it is a non-state, non-governmental, public, non-profit organization that unites on a voluntary basis all those who are interested in the development of education and a particular educational institution. Two legal statuses are possible: with the formation of a legal entity or without its formation.

The Board of Trustees is not just support and funding, but a dialogue with the authorities on behalf of the school and a dialogue with the school on behalf of civil society.

Functions of the Board of Trustees

1) Social - Representatives of various social and professional groups of the population are involved in the activities of the Board of Trustees. This circumstance to a certain extent predetermines the nature of the differentiation of the educational demands of social groups. People increasingly understand that the quality of education received will determine the future social status of a citizen.

2) Economic - without the implementation of multi-channel schemes of extra-budgetary, shared financing of an educational institution, not only its development, but also its functioning is impossible. The presence of the financial, legal and property base of the Board of Trustees determines the competitive advantages of the staff of the educational institution in the labor market and educational services.

The property base of the Board of Trustees is the amount of financial, material and intellectual resources formed from the contributions of trustees or founders, as well as received by the Board of Trustees in other legal ways in order to provide assistance and support to the school.

3) Political - the municipal community, represented by the legislative and executive authorities, as well as other social partners, uses the Board of Trustees to implement certain educational policies.

The dominant function is the economic function of the Board of Trustees, which is determined by the following factors:

· Boards of Trustees are considered as one of the channels for attracting additional sources of non-budgetary funding for the school;

· the financial resources of the Board of Trustees partially compensate for the lack of funds from the budget for the educational process;

· voluntary investors of the Board of Trustees are, first of all, parents and students;

· the real owner of the financial resources of the Board of Trustees is the educational institution, and their manager is its administration.

2. Regulatory framework of the Board of Trustees

a) Convention on the Rights of the Child (entered into force in 1959);

b) European Social Charter (entered into force in 1965);

c) International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (entered into force in 1976);

d) UNESCO Convention on Technical and Vocational Education (entered into force in 1989).

The federal regulatory framework sufficient for the creation, operation and development of boards of trustees is represented by the following federal laws:

Articles 118-121 of paragraph 5 of chapter 4 of part 1 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation (dated 01/26/96);

Article 2, paragraph 6; articles 32, 35, 36 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education" (dated January 13, 1996);

Articles 10, 15, 24, 26 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On non-profit organizations" (dated 12.01.96);

Articles 8, 12, 17, 18 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Public Associations" (dated May 19, 1995).

2.1. Board of Trustees without the status of a legal entity

The principles of state policy, in line with which the activities of educational institutions should be built, are defined by paragraph 6 of Art. 2 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education". They establish the democratic, state nature of management and the autonomy of educational institutions. Article 32 of the law defines the competence and responsibility of an educational institution and authorizes the administration to independently attract additional sources of financial and material resources, but in relation to public self-government bodies, administrations are left only coordination functions their activities (clause 21, article 32 of the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education").

Article 35 establishes that the management of a state and municipal educational institution is based on the principles of unity of command, i.e. carried out by the principal of the school (clause 3 of article 35) or by a self-government body. One of the possible forms of self-government is the Board of Trustees (clause 2, article 35)

The activities of the Board of Trustees, created without the formation of a legal entity, does not require separate licensing, because in this case the license of the educational institution is valid.

The areas of activity established by the charter and license of the institution are also permitted for the activities of its Board of Trustees.

The Board of Trustees, which does not have the status of a legal entity, cannot independently own property, but may have a separate personal account in an educational institution, serviced by one of the accounting staff.

2.2. Board of Trustees with the status of a legal entity

The Board of Trustees acquires the rights of a legal entity only from the moment of state registration. The Board of Trustees can be registered independently or contact the services of special firms.

The founders of the Board of Trustees as a public organization or body of public initiative must be at least three legally capable individuals. The founders of the Board of Trustees as an autonomous non-profit organization may be individuals and legal entities (Article 15 of the Law "On Non-Commercial Organizations"). The Board of Trustees, as a legal entity, must have its own charter.

The following documents are submitted for state registration:

An application signed by members of the Presidium (Board) of the Board of Trustees indicating the place of residence of each;

Charter of the Board of Trustees in two copies;

An extract from the minutes of the constituent assembly, including information on the establishment of the Board of Trustees, on the approval of its charter and on the formation of its governing bodies and the audit commission;

Information about the founders;

Document confirming the payment of the registration fee;

Document on the legal address of the Board of Trustees.

The name of the council is registered at the same time. Documents for state registration are submitted no later than three months from the date of the constituent assembly. The activities of the Board of Trustees do not require separate licensing if its founder (educational institution or its administration) has a state license and an agreement has been concluded between them. The same situation arises if several institutions are co-founders of the Board of Trustees. Licensing is mandatory if the Board of Trustees conducts independent activities.

The Council can be created in one of the following organizational and legal forms of a non-profit organization provided for by law:

Public organization;

body of public initiative;

Autonomous non-profit organization.

To choose the form of the Board of Trustees that is optimal for a particular educational institution, we offer their legislative definitions.

Article 8 of the Law “On Public Associations” states that a public organization is a public association based on membership, acting to protect common interests and achieve the statutory goals of united citizens. Members of a public organization can be both public associations and legal entities. The supreme body is the general meeting of members of the organization, and the permanent body is an elected collegial body accountable to the general meeting.

Board of Trustees - what is it? The definition of the term is given by the Criminal Executive Code of the Russian Federation and some other regulatory documents. Parents of schoolchildren, people whose children ended up in educational institutions, as well as employees of such organizations should have an idea of ​​what the council is. This will help to conduct business in accordance with current laws.

Criminal Code: Definition

Board of Trustees - what is it? The Criminal Code of the Russian Federation proposes to characterize this term as follows: a body that is formed at a certain colony for the maintenance and education of convicts. The main task of the PS is to help with administrative issues related to the activities of the colony, as well as to strengthen the material base. PS can solve the problems of social protection of wards, engage in employment of those who are released, their daily self-realization.

The law on the board of trustees of such a plan is the 142nd article of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Inside create a position. It will regulate the work of the PS.

Who, what and how

In the colony, the composition of the Board of Trustees is made up of employees of state institutions, activists who have expressed a desire to try themselves in this area, and persons from public organizations. Only those whose moral, business personality traits allow them to cope with the tasks assigned to the PS are chosen here.

The creation of a PS is the area of ​​responsibility of a specialized state agency. She is engaged in the approval of the position, chooses the composition. The country's supreme executive power decides who gets the position of "chairman of the board of trustees." But local authorities will control the work of the PS and its leaders.

Members of the council can regularly visit the wards, get acquainted with the internal "kitchen", talk with the defendants held in the colony and control issues of justice. In particular, if there are complaints, it is the members of the council who can move them forward so that the consideration takes place quickly and correctly. If in the course of such work it is possible to detect shortcomings in the functioning of the colony, the chairman of the council sends a request to the administration, formulates proposals aimed at improving the situation. At the same time, the PS search has no right to interfere in the operational work of the colony.

PS: what else are

The described type of PS is far from the only one. Similar bodies are created in various non-profit organizations and foundations. So, the PS necessarily functions in the pension fund. He controls how the organization works, stands up for the protection of the interests of the participants. The law regulating the activities of the Board of Trustees in the Pension Fund is called “On Non-State Pension Funds”. PS is considered in the 31st article. It describes how such a council is formed, where the participants are taken from and who is appointed as the leader.

The Board of Trustees of the Pension Fund is an association of persons representing the interests of participants, contributors. For a decision to be made, at least half of the votes in favor of a particular option are required. At the same time, PS participants do not receive payment for their work in this body.

A number of features

In different organizations, the work plan of the board of trustees, as well as the specifics of the work process, are different. So, in one case, the PS is only engaged in supervision, control, but in the other it will have much broader functions. The simplest example is the board of trustees in a school. Here PS is a type of self-government. Back in 1999, the government of the country established an approximate provision for the PS of the school. If you study it, you will notice that the organ:

• helps to attract extrabudgetary funds for the development of the school;
• helps to improve working conditions;
• organizes contests, competitions and other events;
• deals with issues in the field of competence.

First, the regulation on the board of trustees is adopted, and only on its basis the PS is created directly. In a non-profit organization, for this, it is necessary to organize a meeting of all shareholders, during which (this event must be recorded and registered according to the rules of document flow) they decide how to create a PS and how it will work.

PS is a collegiate body, which means that it must have five or more members. When submitting a certain issue to the Board of Trustees, each of the members reports their recommendations. Usually, the issues are directly related to those relevant to the meeting of shareholders.

What is being considered:

• liquidation, reorganization;
• change of charter;
• change in the invested, reserved share of the income received.

Who chairs the Board of Trustees meeting? Usually these are people who carry out such activities for free, that is, they do not receive remuneration for their work. As for the composition, in the general case, three-quarters of the votes in the PS belong to the insured, participants, and investors of the organization. However, these may not be the people themselves, but their official representatives.

PS: terminology

Guardianship allows you to effectively protect the rights, interests, as well as provide guardianship over an unprotected category of citizens.

Trustees are those who are officially elected.

In some institutions, leaders are referred to as trustees.

There is also a special title that can be given to a citizen - and then he becomes a trustee. Finally, there are those who lead or take part in the PS.

Normative regulation of PS in Russia is carried out on the basis of the law adopted in 1999 under the number 1134. It follows from it that educational institutions must have boards of trustees without fail. Such bodies will control how the organization works, as well as monitor earmarked contributions, donations on a voluntary basis. The task of the PS is to ensure that all the money goes to the needs of the educational institution itself, and not to third-party goals.

Responsibility: on everyone and everyone

Even a first-grader knows that the most important person in a school is the principal. His task is to choose a strategy for the development of an educational institution, to provide funding. But just one person is not able to cope with a large organization. Therefore, the idea of ​​boards of trustees appeared, providing assistance to the head of an educational institution on a gratuitous basis. As they say, divide and conquer. Here, this principle is fully reflected - by sharing power between himself and the activists, the chief manager solves even complex tasks with great success.

The regulation on the board of trustees allows introducing self-government into working practice as an effective method of improving the quality of the services provided by the institution. The PS receives some managerial powers, which implements the state practice of public administration. Of course, only a competent director who is able to appreciate all the advantages of this method will resort to this. On the example of numerous educational institutions that organized the PS, it is clear that here the budget money is spent more efficiently, and the institution itself quickly gains independence: financial, economic.

Some nuances

Certain difficulties are associated with such a situation when a PS is created in an educational institution, but nothing is registered as a legal entity. This means that any funds coming from different sources go to the school, even if the council has its own account. Income, expenses will be reflected in the school budget, which will lead to bad consequences. The second option is "black cash". He looks even worse.

To find a way out of the situation, it is necessary not only to form a PS in an educational institution, but also to open a new legal entity corresponding to it. It will be independent, classified as a non-profit organization. The profits received by the PS are not distributed among the participants, but are directed to the improvement of the situation of the school for which the PS works.

In the form of a legal entity, the PS accumulates money without reporting to anyone outside. When extra-budgetary sources are under the control of such a legal entity, officials do not have access to them, which completely eliminates the possibility of illegal fraud. And these occur very often if the local government is trying to reduce the cost of a general education institution: it simply enters the funds received from sources outside the budget as school profits and announces that the educational institution is provided with everything. Of course, one cannot dream of grants here.

Benefits for parents

Why is PS at school useful not only to the director, but also to the parents of all children studying in the institution? They receive a guarantee of purposeful spending of the funds they have collected. This means that it is the townsfolk who will control where and how the money is directed. Trustees work with the parents of all schoolchildren, and the funds raised are sent strictly for educational purposes.

The PS should work closely with the school administration, but he is not subordinate to it, but controls the work of managers. This affects not only financial aspects, but also a number of other issues. In order for the work to be as effective as possible, it is important to establish interaction without conflicts, based on the ideas of partnership. At the same time, parents through the board of trustees can take part in the organization of the educational process and in solving the problems of the school.

PS: not only for general education!

One of the important tasks of the PS is to support the educational program. If we are talking about an institution that provides additional education, then the PS controls that low-income gifted children can get the best. Activists organize circles, sections, hold sports and cultural events aimed, on the one hand, at drawing public attention to problems, and on the other hand, giving children the opportunity to show themselves. The PS also provides legal protection for the educational institution, its students, teachers, and can take part in organizing summer holidays for schoolchildren and teachers.

PS: who to include

Practice shows that PSs that include businessmen are the most effective. Good results are shown by councils that include local officials working in areas adjacent to the field of activity of the organization. But it is recommended not to include “celebrities” if possible. Such conclusions were made in the course of a study organized by the Process-Consulting company and the Garant center.

Needless to say, a lot has changed in recent years. If 7-8 years ago, celebrities were often included in the PS, for which there was no real benefit to the cause, then in recent years this practice has come to naught. But much depends on the characteristics of a particular fund. The most striking example is a foundation chaired by the country's president. This is the organization "Connection" created to help the disabled. It was formed with the participation of the state. There are three tips. One is managed and is the supreme body, the other is the PS, the third is an expert one that decides on financing issues.

When does PS work effectively?

According to experts, the PS shows the best efficiency when the membership is balanced. This means that there must be such persons who will represent the organization, institution in society, those who have established ties with business, as well as people through whom it is possible to work with state institutions. One cannot do without an activist who would move the PS and through him the organization itself forward. This person should attract stakeholders, from which a collegial body can be created. As analysts say, if such an active participant was successfully selected, he will definitely form an authoritative PS.

The council must have a core capable of working actively, but there is also a passive reserve. These are the members who take a minimum part in real work. The active core takes care of interaction with the media, planning the development strategies of the institution. Activists are required to participate in all activities in their area.

Exchange of experience and new opportunities

Many recommend, if possible, to involve foreign citizens in the PS. This is necessary for those institutions that plan to work with foreign legal entities in the future. By attracting such people in advance, you can get invaluable first-hand experience in a similar field in another country.

By the way, do not think that this condition only works for large non-profit organizations. Even the PS at the most ordinary school on the periphery of Russia receives great benefits if it interests a foreign citizen in its work. Probably, it will be possible to establish sufficiently strong ties and take schoolchildren on excursions and training programs to the country where the person came from. You can set up a language exchange program, and declare all the benefits in a special development program, for which you can request a grant from the administration of the locality.
