School Governing Council
Governing councils are bodies that govern a school or preschool. At South Australian Government schools and preschools (sites):
• every school's local community is represented by either a governing council or a school council
• preschools might have either a governing council or a management committee.
The site leader (school principal or preschool director) works together with the council or management committee to develop future directions for their site.
All parents are welcome to join the Governing Council via nomination at the annual AGM.
