Governance

Goulburn Valley Grammar School sees good governance as critical to the school fulfilling its aims and objectives in the short and long term.

Good governance is critical to the school fulfilling its aims and objectives. The school is governed by a Board of Directors elected by members of Goulburn Valley Grammar School Ltd., a not-for-profit company. Board members are elected for three-year terms with elections being held at the Annual General Meeting in May each year. The Principal is also a Director.

Governance responsibilities include the establishment and realisation of the School’s vision and strategic direction. Governance also involves monitoring compliance, risk management, financial performance and stability.

The Board is led by the Chair and supported by the Executive comprised of Deputy Chair, Secretary and Treasurer. The Principal and Business Manager also attend Executive meetings.

The Board is supported by the Finance and Audit Sub Committee, led by the Board Treasurer. This important group brings together specific commercial expertise and focuses on both the short and long-term financial position of the school.

The Board meets regularly. Members of the Board reflect the broad cross-section that makes up the school community.
