Voluntary Grammar Schools
A voluntary grammar (VG) school is a post-primary school managed by a Board of Governors, which consists of persons appointed in line with each school’s scheme of management (usually trustees or foundation governors) along with representatives of parents and teachers and, in most cases, members appointed by the Department of Education.
The Board of Governors of a VG school is the employing authority, and, as such, is responsible for the employment of all staff (teaching and non-teaching) in their school.
VG Schools are funded directly by the Department of Education under the arrangements set out in the Common Funding Scheme for the Local Management of Schools.
