The Principal is the head of the school and has overall responsibility of running the school in consultation with the Directors. The Principal is supported by four deputies who are in charge of academic affairs, Discipline, Public Relations and welfare respectively. The school also has the Director of Studies (DOS), School Matron and Warden who report direct to the principal and ensure that students register with the school, attend classes, and teachers fulfill their obligation of teaching respective subjects.  Every week there is always a staff meeting whereby all teachers meet to compare notes and plan for the weekly activities, and once a month the Principal and senior staff meet with the chairman board of directors to review activities, discuss strategic issues, and make decisions. So the school management style is purposeful, inclusive and encourages staff to be innovative and succeed. The school has a prefect body where some students are chosen as leaders and given responsibilities and encouraged to actively participate in issues affecting students and the decision making process.
