Expressions of Interest
St Joseph’s College has a School Advisory Council to support the Principal, Parish Priests and Leadership Team of the school.
From time to time, there may be vacancies on the School Advisory Council.
While no particular expertise is required, the school seeks a range of diverse skills sets to best advise the Principal, united by a desire to provide the best possible education for our students.
A balanced membership with parent voice on the School Advisory Council is well placed to advise the principal about important matters particularly related to the school’s mission and the students’ success.
The needs of the council are given priority in terms of ensuring a balance of gender, cultural diversity and skill sets.
