Linking Schools and Communities is a comprehensive induction for council or board Chairs and Principals to attend together. It provides time for joint planning and partnership building, so they may work together to establish an effective school council or board, as per the principal’s legislative responsibility.
 
The workshop will help both the principal and chair understand the roles and responsibilities of council and board members, as well as how council and boards effectively contribute to the success of schools. It equips them to be able to arrange training and development for all of their council or board members that best suits their specific needs.
