The Department of Education procedure contains a good summary of the
legislative framework under which Queensland P&Cs operate.
The objectives of the P&C association are to promote the interests, and facilitate the development and further improvement of the Queensland Academies Creative Industries Campus (QACI).
General meetings of the association are held on the third Wednesday of each calendar month.
In pursuit of the association’s objectives, the functions of the association are to:
- foster special interest in the general community and the business community in educational matters connected to the QACI campus and the students
- foster general community interest in educational matters
- endeavour to bring about closer co-operation between the parents of students attending QACI, other members of the community and the staff and students of the campus
- provide or assist in the provision of financial or other resources or services for the benefit of students of the campus.
