The Board of Hope School
Hope International School is governed by a voluntary board, comprising of one representative from each member mission organisation, a representative from Parent Council, a staff representative, and the Director in an ex-officio capacity. Each Board member has signed a statement of their Christian faith.
Hope School is blessed to have a supportive and visionary board, taking us forward into God’s plans for the future. The Board gives direction and accountability to the Director and the school as a whole, drawing on their combined qualifications and experience in the fields of education, Christian leadership, medicine, government policy and cross-cultural missions work. You can find out more information about our Board members in our staff directory.
