Has your school registered a parent representative?

CSPV is the peak Catholic school parent council representing parents of children in Catholic schools across Victoria. There are several opportunities available for parents to connect with CSPV. 

We recently sent letters to every Principal across Victoria to invite them to nominate a parent representative to be a liaison with CSPV so we can provide parents with further opportunity to share their voice and perspective on important issues in education.

Please ask your Principal if they received this invitation and if they have any questions about the role to contact our admin officer Julia - admin@cspv.catholic.edu.au.

One parent representative will be the contact person to represent parents in your school, working alongside the Principal to share information and act as a liaison with CSPV on matters pertinent in education. The parent nominee will not be required to attend CSPV meetings but may be invited to attend in future as a guest.

To nominate a parent representative, please complete the CSPV Parent Contact Nomination Form. 

For more information, please contact Julia McCarthy, CSPV Administration and Marketing Officer, at admin@cspv.catholic.edu.au.

CSPV also have many opportunities to contribute to education forums, focus groups and other committees. We currently have several parents as co-opted members sitting on committees to contribute parent voice to a particular discussion taking place about education. Should you be interested in nominating for a co-opted role, please let our admin officer Julia know - admin@cspv.catholic.edu.au.

The terms of reference or definition of a co-opted member can be found on our website at:http://cspv.catholic.edu.au/join-us/
