As you would know, the PMSA commissioned the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD) in late 2017 to review the PMSA’s governance against the general accepted standards of good governance practice and has consulted the community widely.
The AICD has now completed its review and the PMSA Council received the AICD’s full report with recommendations on 31 July.
The PMSA’s main objective of this review has been to build solid governance foundations for the future. This process is a fundamental step in PMSA’s ongoing changing journey.
The PMSA has been working to communicate consistently and openly to the school community about this process and the timing of this governance review report through email, school newsletters, on social media and on the PMSA’s website. We are committed to continuing this open communication.
With the AICD’s review complete and report finalised, the PMSA Council is looking forward to examining the recommendations closely with the AICD in a meeting on 13 August and developing an action plan of the recommendations and relevant timing in a meeting on 27 August.
Following this review process, in September the PMSA will make publicly available a summary of the AICD report and provide an action plan of when report recommendations will be implemented.
If you have any queries or comments regarding the governance review process, please contact the PMSA corporate office by email communications@pmsa-schools.edu.au or phone (07) 3371 0709.
