I have been asked ..what is the role of the contact person in your Primary Principals Council?

At your PPC meeting the President invites Principals to be the contact person for Reference Groups each year. Your role is to access the reports from your Regional representative on the Reference Groups and share the report back to your PPC. In the event that you don’t receive a report, you will find the reports on the NSWPPA website. Alternatively you can contact me.

It is also the contacts role to put forward any issues to your Regional Representative to discuss at the Reference Group meeting each term. From time to time you may be asked to attend a Reference Group meeting if the substantive member from your region is unable to attend.

Term 1 each year Chairpersons of Reference Groups declare Regional Vacancies. I then contact the PPC Presidents in the Region to call you as the PPC Contact people to see if you would be interested in taking up a position on the Reference Group.

Presidents discuss the candidates with the Reference Group Chairperson at the Term 1 State Council Meeting and then that candidate is ratified by the members in attendance for a position on the group.

If a vacancy comes up during the year, the Presidents need to talk amongst themselves and decide who will relieve in the position until the follow years Term 1 State Council Meeting.

Looking forward to some of our current contact people joining Reference Groups for the first time! Your PPC President will have contacted you by now if you are eligible or keen to be involved at an Association level.
