PLC Sydney acknowledges the importance of good governance in all our undertakings.
The Role of College Council
The College Council is responsible for the overall governance of the College. It sets the strategic direction to ensure the College continues its long standing tradition of academic excellence.
Comprising approximately 15 members, the College Council is a combined council for both PLC Sydney and PLC Armidale. Council members are drawn from the College community and beyond, and offer a wealth of skills, qualifications and expertise.
Mrs Leah Russell is PLC Sydney's 11th and current Chairperson and the first woman elected.
The school reports an Annual Report to the Presbyterian Assembly.
