The board of management
All national schools are managed by a Board of Management. This body, which is a legal entity has the responsibility for the day to day management of the school. There is an agreed structure of 8 people for all national schools in Ireland.
Many schools have sub committees of the Board of Management, which may focus on specific areas like Premises, Publicity/Fundraising or Implementation of Ethos.
