What is a School Council and what does it do?

All Government schools in Victoria have a School Council.  They are legally constituted bodies that are given powers to set the key directions of a school within centrally provided guidelines. In doing this, a School Council is able to directly influence the quality of education that the school provides for its students.

Why is Parent membership so important?

Parents on School Councils provide important viewpoints and have valuable skills that can shape the future direction of the school.

Should parents wish to further discuss their involvement in the School Council please do not hesitate to contact the College.
