Private School Governance

Private school governance refers to how a private school is organized and managed. Typically, it involves a board of trustees or governors who oversee the school’s operations, set policies, ensure financial stability, and maintain the institution's mission. Unlike public schools, private schools have more flexibility in their governance structures and decision-making processes. Parents, educators, and other stakeholders may be involved, but ultimately, the board is responsible for major decisions, including hiring school leadership and approving budgets. This governance structure aims to ensure the school effectively meets its educational goals while adhering to its values and standards.
