Report on 20th March Board Meeting

Issue 23: 24/3/2023 Strategic Objective:

The Board of FIS meets every third Monday of the month (term time only). This month we met on the 20th of March. This main focus of this meeting was the vote of the 2023-24 budget presented by the Finance Committee following an extensive review in the past few months since the first draft was presented in December 2022.

The consensus was that the budget was solid and would allow the school to welcome students in newly opened sections, improve the programmes where needed, while ensuring long-term financial viability of the school was reiterated and the final budget was voted by the quorum of Board members present in person and online.

The budget is now ready to be submitted to the EDB and then presented to the community during the AGM in May. More information on the Budget will be shared with the FIS Community in the coming days by email.

Forty minutes of the Meeting were dedicated to the annual presentation by the Marketing & Communication Director of the Marketing, Communication, Events and ECA strategy for the years to come with a focus on increasing our reach to prospective families and defining a strong Value Proposition to compete on the International School environment in Hong Kong. The strategy is underpinned by a visible and consistent brand and a high-standards content-rich communication effort on all channels that put our students at the forefront of all our actions.

During that meeting the Board has agreed on the date of our next AGM which will take place on May 22, 2023. More information and details on this event will be shared with the community in April.
