Governance
Briefly, what is Governance?
To set the destination, provide accountability, build relationships, delegate and set expectations for the Association Management. We monitor what is happening, manage risk by asking questions like “What is the biggest ‘thing’ facing our association?”. Governance provides support and guidance to the Association Management.
What does Governance mean for North Taranaki Kindergarten Association?
The Board is the legal authority for the North Taranaki Kindergarten Association. Board members are trustees representing the interests of the children, parents and caregivers of this Association. As such, the Board is entrusted by the community for the 16 Kindergartens that come under the umbrella of this Association.
It is recognised that the Board has the overall responsibility for Kindergartens, but to enable Kindergartens to function effectively, the Board, Management and Administrative Staff, Head Teachers, Teachers, Kindergarten Administrators and Teacher Supports must work together in a climate of goodwill, respect, trust and co-operation.
