 | Parent Governor Representatives (PGRs) are parent governors who have been elected or appointed to sit on local authority scrutiny committees dealing with education. |
| The remit of the PGR is to provide an apolitical voice for all parents in their area in local decision making. |

| Pgr education, in particular, is the principal vehicle for training teachers in HE, who will prepare successive generations of qualified people to form the skilled workforce of the future. |
| Pgr numbers are concentrated in quite different subject areas: science is the biggest category (18,000 or 29% of total pgr), followed by engineering (10,300), humanities (8,000) and social sciences (6,000). |
| There are significant differences between the destinations of the pgr and the pgt qualified, with the former more clustered in education and in the teaching and research occupations, and the latter more generally spread throughout employer categories and types of work. |
