b. The College of Teachers is responsible for developing and overseeing the direction of the school. The College of Teachers performs the functions of a school Principal, operating collectively and by consensus. Each member therefore has equal responsibility for the running of the school, in particular the educational and teaching direction in the school. As such the College constitutes the heart of the school and holds an awareness of the total functioning of the school. They meet twice weekly to support and consult with one another on educational matters, and discuss, formulate and review the school curriculum, school policy and the day to day running of the school. The whole (“big”) College has delegated many administrative and business matters to the “small” College, an executive group which meets weekly to deal with regular administrative issues. The College of Teachers has responsibility for staff selection. The School employs a College Facilitator to resource and assist the College of Teachers with their administrative tasks. |
