Implementation: The policies describe the rationale, aims and implementations of the operations and directions of the school as a whole. The process of considering school policies will be managed by the principal and will be a continuous cycle, and will use a transparent and consultative process. New policies will be added and modified to reflect the growth and evolution of the new school and new programs. will use the school policy layout, meet legislative and compliance requirements, and have a designated review period When developing a new policy, the principal will consult with appropriate personnel in order to draft the initial policy statement. The draft policy may be circulated for comment to the appropriate committee/s, to staff members, to parents, to students before ratification by School Council. Policies will be developed taking into account DET policies, memos and circulars relating to a particular policy area. A database of policies and a review schedule to provide a timeline for reviews either annually or on a four-year basis is to be maintained. When reviewing an existing school policy as per the four-year review cycle, the principal will consult with staff and the appropriate committee/s and to School Council for ratification.
