Immanuel Lutheran College Council
The College Council has responsibility for the overall governance of the school. It acts as the custodian and guardian of the organisation. It is also a source of collective leadership within the school in partnership with the Principal. Its key role is governance not the day-to-day operations of the school, which it delegates to the Principal.
Members of Immanuel College Council include parents, staff and others selected for their professional expertise.
The College Council invites all potential representatives to volunteer their name and curriculum vitae for inclusion in the register, from which new members can be selected to maintain the balance of the Council when vacancies occur. Applicants must be supportive of the ethos and values of Lutheran Education and Immanuel Lutheran College.
Immanuel Lutheran College is a member of the Lutheran school’s system in Queensland and is a District school owned by the Lutheran Church of Australia Queensland District (LCAQD). Confirmation of appointments to the College Council are made by LCAQD.
