Our Team

 

The school has amazing leaders at all levels, who work both individually and collectively for the benefit of our students and their families.

The senior team balances roles that are both inward and outward facing. Some have roles entirely focused on Sandringham, whereas others may have responsibilities that involve external activities.

The team members have complementary skills and experience that provides a powerful driving force for school improvement.
