Explanation:
Navela ste 2 opcije .... za dvije funkcije. S međusobnim "prekrivanjem".
U različitim društveno-upravnim sustavima ne može se uvijek naći identičan (doslovan) izraz, jer su i sustavi različiti ... niti "bukvalan" prijevod ... Za duh ciljnoga (target) jezika, dakle, trebate pronaći najprikladniju opciju koja ponajbliže prikazuje SUŠTINU Vašega prijevoda ... (i NIKAKO NE SMIJE ugroziti SUŠTINU)...
Ako osoba obnaša istovremeno dvije navedene (isprepletene) funkcije ... imate dvije odgovarajuće solucije.
ŠKOLSKI ODBOR nije loša solucija, kad bi postojao u target jeziku ... Možda io hoće jenoga dana .. u isom značenju : "odbor građna, roditelja učenika te škole zajedno sa stručnim (edukacijskim) odborom određene škole ...

Moje shvačanje Vašega pitanja ... ne znači da neko drugo tumačenje ne može biti ISPRAVNIJE ..

S dobrim namjerama (bez obzira što one mogu biti rabljene kao materijal kojim se "popločava put u ... " kamo već ?)
