Board of Governors and School Leadership
The Lochinver Board of Governors is largely made up of people who all have a personal interest in the welfare of the School as former parents, employees or pupils.
The Chair, Mr Nicholas Gilbert, is a former pupil and has been a Governor of the School since 2014. The Governing Body aims to include, within its membership, expertise in different areas which may be useful to the School such as education, law, accountancy, healthcare, and construction. Accordingly, we have as Governors Heads of independent schools together with other specially selected members. Governors do not receive any remuneration from Lochinver, nor do they charge for any work carried out on the school’s behalf.
The Board is assisted by the Bursar who acts as Clerk to the Governors.
The Board of Governors is responsible for the overall direction of the School but plays no part in its day-to-day running, a task which is left entirely to the Head and his staff. However, the Governors maintain close contact with the School, particularly with the Head and the Bursar, making themselves available for consultation, should the need arise. Full Governors’ meetings are held at the School once a term and various committees are elected to deal with specific areas, such as finance, risk, education and health, and safety.
