What We Do

P&Cs Qld is the peak body supporting and representing more than 900,000 state school parents and wider school communities throughout Queensland.

We support the achievement of quality educational outcomes for students by fostering parental and community engagement in a thriving and successful education system.

Through our state-wide network of 1,266 P&C Associations, School Councils and 58,000+ volunteers, we have the localised presence and voice to lead and enact change.

P&Cs Queensland is guided by a nine-person Board and a clear Constitution. We support our members in everything they do and advocate for parents, carers and schools to governments, political parties and the wider community, with a dedicated State Office in Brisbane backing our work.
