The Church of Scotland's governing system is presbyterian, which means that no one person or group within the Church has more influence or say than any other. The Church does not have one person who acts as the head of faith, as that role is the Lord God's. The church's supreme rule of faith and life is through the teachings of the Bible.

Church of Scotland government is organised on the basis of courts, mainly along lines set between 1560 and 1690. Nationally, the General Assembly; at district level, the Presbytery; and at local level, the Kirk Session.
