What is the role of the UAS Board
The UAS Board is dedicated to ensuring that Universal American School is well run by the leadership team and that sustainable outcomes are delivered and maintained.
All governing boards of private school have four core functions:
- Setting strategic direction within the context of a clearly-state vision and ethos
- Holding the senior leadership team accountable for the achievement of strategy and running of the school
- Overseeing the overall educational performance of the school and suggesting ways for improvement
- Overseeing the financial performance of the school, in the case of UAS, as a not-for profit school.
The UAS Board can be contacted at UASBoard@uasdubai.ae
