Do you need to comply?

Yes, according to the provisions of the various Acts and Regulations applicable to schools.

Conditions of compliance

Schools must comply with many State and Commonwealth Acts and Regulations. Among the most important pieces of legislation are:

• Education Grants Act 1973 (Vic)
