The Charity Trustees Network is drafting a model Code of Conduct for charities. This recognises the difficulties that can arise from problem board members.
Its worth remembering that having a code is one thing; having the ability and willingness to apply it is another. I know of at least one college that had a code of conduct but did not know how it was going to use it when a governor was accused of breaching confidentiality.
The CTN would like to hear about:
1) the kinds of trustee behaviours that have caused concern and difficulties
2) experience of putting in place and using a code of conduct
