Board
The APEEE’s Board is made up of 26 members who are each elected for two years from among the class representatives. It is composed as follows:
- 16 members selected as section representatives, one nursery-primary representative and one secondary representative per language section of the Uccle site;
- 5 members selected by the Berkendael Working Group;
- 1 member selected by the SWALS;
- 4 members elected directly by the General Assembly.
The functions of the Administrative Board are as follows:
- to implement the decisions taken by the General Assembly
- to facilitate relations between parents and the school administration, higher instances and other stakeholders (e.g. teachers, students, inspectorate)
- to balance the interests of parents in different the language sections and cycles
- to organise working groups and task forces
The Administratve Board also chooses from among its membership the parent delegates to send to different school bodies.

The Bureau is headed by the APEEE President and three Vice Presidents who manage the different branches of the APEEE.

- VP Pedagogy - Marc GUITART
- VP Administration - Nils BEHRNDT
- Treasurer - Brian GRAY
- Secretary - Valentina PAPA
- Deputy Secretary for Information - Julien REICHSTADT

The current Bureau will serve until December 2021.
Board Members
A list of the 26 elected representatives to the APEEE Administrative Board (CA) from December 2020 to December 2021 is available below; the list includes also the additional roles that each undertakes as part of their commitment.
Importantly, the APEEE Board meetings can also be attended by CA deputies as well as section representatives to the EEBI Educational Councils (CEs) and their deputies. This group of Board observers or "attendees" are also encouraged to join working groups or serve as delegates on behalf of the APEEE. This ensures broad representation and a distribution of work across more shoulders. You can find a list of those who play an additional role in the APEEE or in other bodies at bottom.
