School Board Meeting

The Madeley Primary School Board held its Term 4 meeting last night. Items on the agenda included:

1. A review of current membership of the Board
2. Discussion about the Board's 'Terms of Reference'
3. Discussion about the procedures to review the effectiveness of the Board
4. Concerns with communication and ways to improve this
5. 2015 Contributions and Charges
6. School student, parent and staff survey data
7. NAPLAN data review
8. Attendance data review
9. Discussion and endorsement of new/revised school policies.

At the meeting the School Board endorsed the 'Off-Site Nature Play' and the 'Behaviour Education' Policy. Both these policies will be implemented in 2015. Parents will be provided with information about these policies early in the new year.

Mike Kelly's (our current School Board Chair) tenure ends this term. This means that his position will need to be advertised at the beginning of the year. We would like to thank Mike for the excellent work he has done in leading the School Board.
