Governing councils are bodies that govern a school or preschool. Governing councils work with the site leader (principal or director) to help set and monitor the direction of a site. A governing council meets regularly to talk about the direction for the site. The timing of meetings can be different for each site, but it’s no less than twice a term. Meetings are a big part of being on a governing council, but it’s not only that. 

In your role on the council, you might; be on an interview panel to select the site’s principal or director, need to deal with media in response to an event or a good news story be an employing authority of out of school hours care (OSHC) or canteen staff. We as a site are always looking for Governing Councils members, if you would like a voice into the operations of AEEC we would love to have you join, please contact the office for more information.
