Our Board Of Trustees
The Board of Trustees (BOT) provides strategic leadership and direction to our kura. The Board works in partnership with the students and staff, the community, and government to ensure the best possible outcomes for all students. This is achieved through particular governance activities such as:
- Setting the strategic direction and targets for the kura
- Planning towards and reporting on achieving those targets
- Curriculum management
- Financial and property management
- Policies and procedures
- Health and safety
- Employment of staff at the kura
The Board sets the direction for the kura in its charter and policy framework, and monitors progress toward achieving expectations (governance). The principal has delegated responsibility for how the kura will achieve the Board’s expectations, working within the law and the Board’s policy framework (management).
