School Council

School Council 

All school councils in Victoria operate under the Education and Training Reforms Act 2006. Each school council consists of Parent members, Department employee members and an option of Community Members. At Pascoe Vale Primary School in 2021, we have nine parent members, four departmental members (including the principal) and two community members.
