Here are some of the specific things boards do:
• Set the strategic direction and long-term plans for the school/kura in consultation with the school/ kura’s community.
• Monitor the board’s progress against its strategic goals and targets.
• Monitor and evaluate student progress and achievement.
• Oversee the management of staff, property, finances, curriculum and administration.
• Ensure that government priorities are met.
• Fulfil the intent of the Treaty of Waitangi by valuing and reflecting New Zealand’s dual cultural heritage.
• Appoint and support the principal and assess their performance.
• Act as good employers to all staff at the school/kura
How do the Principal and Board work together? The Board of Trustees are the governors of the school/kura. The principal is responsible for the management of the school/kura. The principal is a member of the Board and acts as the board’s educational leader and chief adviser. Governance and management work in partnership.
Governance determines: the what - designing the future, the ends - the outcomes to be achieved, policies - statements of what is expected.
Management determines: the how - designing how to get there, the means - strategies to achieve the ends, procedures - steps to meet expectations.
