School Boards are accountable to parents and caregivers, their local communities, the Minister of Education, other government agencies and the public, for their actions and performance.

The board is the employer of all the school’s staff and is responsible for:

• setting the school’s strategic and policy direction in consultation with parents, staff and learners
• ensuring that the school provides a safe environment and quality education for all its learners
• overseeing the management of curriculum, staff, property, finance and administration
• consistently monitoring and reviewing progress against targets to inform future planning.

Code of Conduct

The board must have a charter, which sets out long-term goals and annual targets determining the school’s priorities. The board must monitor and report annually to its community and the Ministry of Education on progress towards those goals and targets.
