The four-year term for the current Board of Management ends on 30th November 2023. Many thanks to Seamus Hussey and Gemma Skelly, outgoing Parent Nominees on the BOM, for their fantastic support, their hard work and their loyalty to the school over the last 4 years. Their contribution to the school is greatly appreciated.
On December 1st, 2023, a new Board of Management will be appointed to every Primary School in the country. Boards of Management are appointed for a 4 year term and their task is to manage the school on behalf of the Patron, The Archdiocese of Dublin. Each Board of Management has eight members, two of which are Parent Nominees, elected from those parents who currently have children enrolled in the school. A strong and effective Board of Management is essential to providing the best possible education for your child and the Parent Voice is a very important one.
Nominations for two new Parent Nominees will be accepted directly after the PA AGM on the 13th November at 7.30pm. If there is more than one nominee of either gender, then a secret ballot will be held to elect the new BOM member. Please read the attached letter from the current Chairperson, Patricia O Brien outlining the process for the meeting.
Please contact the office at secretary@straffanschool.com if you require any further information on this role and the Principal will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
