Board of Management Training
The JMB and APTCS will provide training for Board of Management members at eight venues during the month of November. The training session will provide board members with a clear insight into their roles and responsibilities as board members and the relationship between the Board and the Trustees. In looking at the role and functions of the board, particular reference will be made to the Articles of Management/governing documents, DEY circular letters and relevant legislation.
Members of Boards of Management in voluntary secondary schools are invited to attend one of the training sessions. We encourage all members of new boards of management and new members of existing boards of management to make a special effort to attend. Newly appointed principals are also encouraged to attend.
Educate Together will present a session on ethos for members of boards of management under the patronage of Educate Together at the training on 14th November 2026 in the Talbot Hotel, Dublin. Members of boards of management of Educate Together Secondary Schools are encouraged to attend at this training session.
Principals are requested to register board members for training even if the inaugural meeting of the board is scheduled for a date following the first training session.
