About Western Australian Council of State School Organisations

Partnering with P&Cs to advance public educations, the Western Australian Council of State School Organisations Inc. (WACSSO) is the peak body representing parents of public school children in Western Australia. WACSSO provides services and representation at state and national level to approximately 660 Parents and Citizens Associations (P&Cs) in Western Australia. Together with affiliated P&C Associations, WACSSO influences the direction of public education for the benefit of students. WACSSO is largely a volunteer organisation made up of Councillors (representatives) from each education electorate in Western Australia. State Councillors attend five weekend State Council meetings each year, where they debate and discuss issues relevant to parents and students in public schools. A State Conference is held once a year, usually in August, where both Councillors and representatives from P&C Associations congregate to discuss and decide on the direction of the organisation. The organisation employs four full time equivalent staff and retains a pool of casual employees.
