Representation
A fundamental role of CSPQ is to speak on behalf of parents by actively engaging in the wider educational environment. This means that we will put into practice our vision of being the Strong Voice for families in Catholic schools. Below is the list of groups and organizations on which CSPQ is represented.
CSPQ continually seeks representation on relevant government and Catholic education bodies and encourages committed parents to consider nominating for positions on such groups. If you think you have the interest and ability to represent parents on any of these bodies in the future, please call the CSPQ office on 07 3905 9730 and we will note your interest in our register.
