CoRep
Council of Representatives (CoRep)
All the powers of the AESOP rest within the Council of Representatives which is a body elected by Full Members. Among other functions, it defines the policies and programmes of the Association and elects the Officials of AESOP.
The CoRep is composed by the National Representatives, the Officials and up to three additional persons designated by the President.
If a country has one Full Member, its delegate shall represent member schools of that country. If a country has two Full Members, both their delegates shall represent member schools of that country. If a country has more than two Full Members, all Full Members of that country shall elect two representatives of member schools of that country. The Secretary General shall be responsible for the general oversight of this process.
CoRep meets twice a year. Usually CoRep meetings take place in comcomitance with AESOP Heads of Schools meeting in spring and during AESOP annual congress in July.
The Council is a vital ressource for AESOP, where support has often been seeked – and found – for various activities. Furthermore, it is a main contact chanel between AESOP and its members: do not hesitate to contact your national representative if you have any questions.
Full list of Council of Representatives Members, including National Representatives 2020-2022 is displayed below.
