The Governing Body supports the Headmaster in his professional management of the school. It adopts a Constitution annually and ensures that the school is run along sound business principles.
Governing Body’s monitoring takes place via various sub-committees i.e. Boarding, Facilities Development, Finance, Legal, Marketing and Fundraising. The main areas of responsibility are the setting and implementation of the annual Budget; annual review the school’s policies, ensuring the maintenance and development of the property of the school and the employment and retention of qualified staff.
