School Council

School councils operate under a legislative framework within the Victorian government school system. They play a key role in:

• supporting the principal to provide the best possible educational outcomes for students
• school accountability and improvement processes, and
• the endorsement of key school planning, evaluation and reporting documents

The Geelong High School Council consists of elected members from each of the following groups:
• Six parents
• Four students
• Community Co-opted as required

Elections are held annually in March and terms are generally for two years with half the council finishing their term each year.
