School trustees have a very important role in making sure every child achieves their potential at school. Here are some of the things they do...

• Work with the principal and consult with staff, students and the community.

• Set the educational goals and strategic direction of the school.

• Monitor progress and let parents know how the school is progressing against its annual targets and how well students are achieving.

• Decide how the school’s funding will be spent.

• Select the school’s principal and support the development of all staff.

• Oversee the management of staff, property, finances, curriculum and administration.
