The NSW Education Department is undertaking a, long overdue, review of the Not-For-Profit Guidelines for Non-Government Schools (2019) (the ‘NFP
Guidelines’) to, in the Department's words, 'ensure they continue to assist
non-government schools to understand and comply with the not-for-profit
requirements of the Act'.
They are also 'working with key stakeholders' to develop a regulatory framework to 'enhance the regulation of the not-for-profit requirements under the Education Act 1990'.
To support this process the Department has released:
Submissions to the Discussion Paper are due 23 November 2022 and should be emailed to: [email protected].
We are encouraging all schools with concerns about the framework and guidelines to:
- provide us with any details or examples of your concerns as soon as possible,
- make a submission to the Department outlining your concerns, and
- provide us with a copy of the submission.
