Pecuniary Interests
As a school, we register board members pecuniary and non-pecuniary interests in the strategic leadership of the school, to ensure openness and transparency.
A pecuniary interest is one in which the board member has a direct financial involvement.
A non-pecuniary interest represents no personal financial gain for the board member.
