I refer again to the website of the Department of Education. It states:

The board of management manages the school on behalf of the patron and is accountable to the patron and the Minister. The board must uphold the characteristic spirit (ethos) of the school and is accountable to the patron for so doing.

We are coming back to the characteristic spirit of the school and the ethos the board has to maintain. If it is not doing so, it is accountable to the patron and the Minister.
