The trustees are the legal owners of the school, which the Board of Management has been appointed to manage. The Board of Management is responsible for the governance of the school. The Principal acts as Secretary to the Board and is not entitled to vote. Ensuring the continuity of Catholic Education in the hands of lay teachers is a primary role of the Board who in turn is responsible to our trustees at the CEIST office. Decisions which may change the ethos or status of the school are matters for the trustees alone.

The Board is covered by a professional indemnity which protects its members both collectively and individually should legal action be taken against it as a result of its actions.
