School Advisory Committee: So what is it and what does it do?
The School Advisory Committee (SAC) is a team of representatives from the school community whose role is to provide advice on educational matters relating to the school. The SAC informs in making key decisions in the life of the school, ultimately with the goal of improving student and school outcomes and experiences. It also provides a necessary link between the Parish Priest- through both himself and his parent representative, Principal, teachers and the school community.
The SAC works on projects or helps resolve issues within our community. Some of the recent works have included:
- providing valuable advice on topical community issues that affect our school
- our physical school environment such as facilities improvement and maintenance
- community building and promotional activities
If you are interested in finding more out about the SAC or applying to be a member, a SAC Prospective Member Brochure can be collected from the school office.
Applications close on Wednesday 28th February. Is this the way you can contribute to our school community?
