Meet Our Board of Trustees:
The Craighead Diocesan School Board of Trustees is made up of various people; we have Parent Representatives, a Co-opted member, representatives from our Board of Proprietors, and a student and a teaching staff representative.
As an Integrated school, the Board of Trustee’s main responsibility lies with governance of curriculum delivery.
The day-to-day management responsibility lies with our highly capable Principal and Senior Leadership Team.
As Board Members, we represent all parents and it is vital that we have the opportunity to express your views. To do so, we need to know what they are.
Please feel free to contact any one of us at any time.
