What is Board of Trustees?

Every state and state-integrated school in New Zealand has a Board of Trustees. Boards bring families, communities and schools together to work for a quality education for our children.

The Board of Trustees is a Crown entity. It is the employer of all school staff and sets the school’s overall strategic direction. The school's principal is the board’s ‘chief executive’ and manages the school operation in line with the board’s policies.

The membership of the school board includes elected parent representatives, an elected staff representative and the principal. Our board also includes a student representative.

Board Trustees have a very important role in making sure every child achieves their potential at school.
