Charter

The charter sets the direction for the school and identifies the priorities the board expects the principal to be leading.

The Education Act requires every school's board of trustees to:

• prepare and maintain a charter

• send a reviewed and updated charter to the Ministry of Education every year.

The charter is the key planning document for our school. It includes strategic aims and annual plans which:

• reflect the goals and aspirations our community has for our school and our students for the next 3–5 years

• outline how our school is implementing the government's priorities as set out in the National Education Guidelines and the National Administration Guidelines

• identify the key areas our board will focus on, both in the longer term and the coming year, to improve the progress and achievement of all of our students.
