As an independent public school, Beeliar Primary School is required to establish and maintain a school board. Information about the roles and responsibilities of a school board is available from the Department of Education (WA). https://www.education.wa.edu.au/school-councils-boards
In summary, school boards have both approval and advisory roles. For example, school boards approve school contributions and charges, booklist requirements and the school dress code. School boards provide advice on school policies and procedures, and can take part in developing and reviewing some school documents (such as the School Annual Report).
School boards do not manage, participate or intervene in the day-to-day running of a school.
