State Election March 2021
The next Western Australian state election is due to take place on Saturday 13 March 2021 to elect members to the Parliament of Western Australia. All seats in the Legislative Assembly along with all those in the Legislative Council will be up for election.
In recent weeks staff and council members of Catholic School Parents WA have been meeting with politicians from both the Labor and Liberal parties. Our goal is to ensure those whose portfolios included education, are aware of the challenges and concerns that parents who choose a Catholic education for their children have.
These meetings also provide the opportunity to inform politicians of the very positive work that CSPWA are currently engaged in.
Politicians are always keen to hear what is happening at grass roots level, and to that end we encourage school parent groups in partnership with their school principal to invite local members to attend parent group meetings to enable them to not only understand the various challenges that school parents have but also to hear about and celebrate the successes.
In order to assist schools in building positive relationships with politicians, CSPWA have developed a resource which provides information and tips on how to go about establishing these important relationships.
