School Principals: Leave Entitlements?

I never said that the BOM has no role in employment matters.

DES sets conditions of employment etc. BOM has a duty to ensure they are complied with within the school. If clarification is ever needed ... it comes from the DES.

All procedures followed by BOM have to be in line with DES guidelines and in line with accepted agreements between Patrons' body, DES and unions.
 
No offence, Paddy - but to me you come across as obfuscating on this. I don't see any evidence in the DES publications to indicate that it would be inappropriate for a board member to raise the issue of a principal's absence at a BOM meeting for clarification. Indeed, there is a a specific responsibility of the BOM to communicate with parents outlined in the DES publication, so this could easily have been addressed by a simple notice in a newsletter (e.g. 'best of luck to Principal Skinner who is taking little Miss Skinner to compete in a father/daughter breakdancing contest').

If there is something specific out there that would go against this, please give specifics.
