Membership and Governance
- Membership is open to all school Parents & Friends (P&Fs) organisations in the ACT that have an interest in education at non-government schools.
- Affiliates are largely the P&F Associations of the relevant schools. However, representation from other bodies such as school boards or councils where this is considered appropriate is accepted.
- Each affiliated organisation can nominate two delegates to attend general meetings of APFACTS.
- The governing committee of APFACTS is elected at an Annual General Meeting. This committee may co-opt other members as it sees fit.
