• Evaluating the school’s performance in achieving its objectives, priorities and general policy directions;
• Endorsing codes of conduct for students at the school;
• To determine the student dress code; and
• To promote the school in the community.

To endorse:

• Charges and contributions for the provision of certain materials, services and facilities pursuant to Section 99 (4) of the School Education Act;
• Extra cost optional components of an educational program pursuant to Section 100 (3) of the School Education Act;
