Advisory Council Information
Purpose of Advisory Council
The purpose of a school advisory council is to provide opportunities for members of the school
community to participate in the decision-making process at the local school level. A primary
function of the council is to serve as an advisory body to the principal and school leadership
team. Members fulfill both representative and advisory roles. While the council does not create
a school policy, they play a critical role in helping to shape the continuous improvement plan
through feedback and recommendations from the community. The functions of the council
include the following:
- assisting with the identification of school needs
- reviewing, evaluating, and shaping the school’s continuous improvement plan
- facilitating communication between school staff and the school community
- providing input for the proposed school budget
