The school is managed by a Board nominated by the Ursuline Order, the Archbishop of Dublin, the Vocational Education Committee, the parents and the teachers. There is a particularly active Parents' Association in the school whose function is to promote and protect the responsibilities and rights of parents as equal partners in the education of their children. To this end, regular interaction with the teachers, students and the Board of Management is maintained by the Parents' Council. A wide range of facilities, prizes and equipment has been provided for the school from the Parents' Association own resources. A regular newsletter, Insight , is published and parents are involved in a wide variety of school activities.
