Meet our Local School Board Members
At our school, DSAT holds ultimate statutory accountability, while the Local School Board acts as its local partner, providing essential support and oversight on the ground. Together, they collaborate closely to ensure that Rossington St Michael’s maintains the highest possible standards and continuously strives for improvement.
