School Advisory Council

School Advisory Councils are an essential component of governing and operating Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Melbourne.
They provide a forum for consultation and participation for parish and school communities, ensuring that schools are accountable for the decisions they make.

The School Advisory Council provides a forum for discussion and discernment, where parent voice and community perspective are available to influence and support the decisions made by the principal and
parish priest for the good of school and parish where students’ wellbeing and outcomes are paramount.

Parents and community members can nominate to be on the School Advisory Council by written request to the Principal.

Further information about School Advisory Council can also be found in the school policy portfolio section of our website, including the ‘School Advisory Council Terms of Reference’, the ‘Working Together in Mission’ document and the ‘School Advisory Council Manual’.
