Revised 2014 WA Non-Government Schools Registration Standards

On 10 February 2014 the revised WA Non-Government Schools Registration Standards and Requirements 2014 (the 2014 Standards) were released by the Department of Education Services WA (DESWA). This is the eighth revision of the Standards since they were first published in January 2004. The Standards have been reviewed annually since 2012.

The 2014 Standards have immediate effect and governing bodies of schools must be able to demonstrate they have policies and procedures in place that will enable them to meet the requirements of the updated Registration Standards.

This briefing paper is designed to provide board members and school executives with:

• The rationale for changes to the 2014 Standards;
• An outline of the structure and revision of the 2014 Standards;
• A summary of key changes contained within the 2014 Standards; and
