What is a Board of Trustees?

The Board of Trustees is an advisory and quality assurance body, which works with the Operator and Principal to ensure quality education in the Independent Schools. The legal authority of the Board lies within the collective body, not with individual members, therefore, the Board must work collaboratively to make good policy; its members should cooperate with each other and with the Operator. The Board of Trustees is considered the voice of the community and its representative in the Independent Schools as a tool of supervision and social participation.
