About Us

We help parents to empower their kids to thrive in school.

Our Objectives

The Australian Parents Council is a representative body that bridges the gap between parents and government policymakers. We are on a mission to help all children thrive in non-government schools but we cannot do it alone. We need both sound government policy and empowered parents to ensure academic, social and emotional success in all students.

We are not-for-profit, non-denominational and non-party political, funded by parents and supported by government. We provide an independent parent voice on education issues and are widely consulted.
