Our School Council

School Council @ Mano

Manifold Heights Primary School Council is the governing body of the school.  It determines appropriate educational policies within Department of Education guidelines which will ensure that the aims of the school are achieved.  School Council is also responsible for the school’s monies and resources.

The composition of the Manifold Heights Primary School Council is:

• 9 elected Non- DET parents
• 5 DET employees including the Principal
• 1 co-opted member of the school community having a special interest in the school.

Elected members of the School Council have a two year term with half retiring annually on the 31st March.  Occasionally a School Councillor retires early and a one year position may be created. This will be specified on the nomination form at Election time. Elections are conducted according to the Education Regulation.

School Council meets on eight occasions per year.

School Council Subcommittees work in specific areas and membership is open to the whole parent body, not just those on School Council.  Please see one of our School Councillors if you would like to join a Sub Committee.  Subcommittees meet at a time that is convenient to its members.

The Manifold Heights Primary School Council subcommittees are:

• Parents & Friends of Mano
• Finance Committee
