Proposed Constitutional Changes

During the 2024 Council of School Leadership Annual General Meeting on April 15th 2024 the following constitutional changes will be put forward for consideration and debate by membership.

 

1.      Redefinition of Communication Officer Role: The role of the communication officer has shifted over the past several years and to better reflect the roles and responsibilities of this position the CSL Executive is seeking membership approval to rename the Communications Officer to Professional Development Coordinator. This new role would focus on the development of professional development resources for CSL members including producing the uLead Podcast. This would be a two-year term position which is part of the way through term and occupied by Corey Haley. The Term would continue through to Jun 30, 2025.

 

2.      Addition of Social Media/Website Coordinator: The Social Media Website Coordinator role is essential for maintaining a strong online presence, facilitating communication with members, and promoting events and initiatives. They ensure timely updates, engage with our community, and enhance visibility, fostering greater connectivity and participation among members.

 

3.      Adjustment of Term of Member At Large Positions: Extending the term length for Members-at-Large from one year to two allows for a deeper immersion into the role, fostering a better understanding of Council operations and initiatives. It provides ample time for members to explore, contribute, and implement meaningful strategies, ultimately enhancing their effectiveness and impact within the organization.

 

These proposed changes will be put forward to the CSL membership for decision during the upcoming AGM. To see the full version of the CSL Consitution with the proposed changes please click here.
