Animals can enrich students’ learning experiences, however schools must adhere to consistent and high quality practices for the care and use of animals. Staff are to adhere to the processes of the Schools Animal Ethics Committee for the use of animals for any scientific teaching activity and/or adhere to the processes of Agricultural Education for the use of animals on school farms.

The Vehicle Management Policy provides a framework for the improved management of all Department and school passenger and light commercial vehicles ensuring the most efficient, effective and economical way to deliver operational services.

This policy details the procedures to be undertaken by a school in order to address the management of health care or medical matters during school hours.

This Framework provides a unified strategic direction for sustainability across our organisation. It outlines our commitment to positive outcomes for sustainability, now and into the future.

These procedures aim to maximise the flexibility available to school communities in the configuration of the school day within the constraints of legislation and industrial agreements. The Director General determines the days in each year on which government schools are to be open for educational instruction of students.
