A large part of many P&Cs activities is the provision of subsidies to school excursions and other supplemental and extracular activities.

P&Cs encourage the general public and local businesses to become involved with the their local school.

Recent years have seen a number of changes to the environment in which P&Cs operate.
  • Volunteers now require Blue Card s ( Criminal Record checks).

  • Tuckshop s and fundraisers are required to sell only healthy foods.

  • Education Queensland has devolved many costs onto the school communities that were previously covered by the department. This has led to some schools requiring a "voluntary" payment from parents to cover consumables.
