School Council


School Council is the school’s governing body made up of parents/carers, teachers and members of the school community. In addition to parent/carer and teacher representatives, School Council can also co-opt people from outside our school community with a specific skill set or knowledge that we are seeking at the time. School Councillors are elected for a two-year period. The School Council year runs from April – March, and each year approximately half of the Councillors comes to the end of their term.

 

The School Council:

  • Develops the school's strategic plan and annual implementation plan.
  • Determines the school's general educational policy.
  • Approves and monitors the school's budget.
  • Supervises the management and maintenance of buildings and grounds.
  • Establishes our structure for consulting parents on decisions.
  • Reports to the Minister of Education and the school community through the Annual Report.

For more information, please see: School Governance.

 

To view our policies and procedures: please see: School Council policies.

 

In 2019, School Council was expanded to increase parent/carer voice and representation.
