GREY STREET PRIMARY SCHOOL COUNCIL

ADVERTISING AND SPONSORSHIP POLICY

 

  1. PURPOSE

 

Grey Street Primary School recognises that there are mutual benefits that can be gained from developing positive and purposeful relationships with organisations, businesses and community groups that exist within the wider community.

 

For the school, these benefits include:

·        Improved student learning outcomes;

·        Increased opportunities for staff development;

·        Enhanced school resources;

·        Increased community involvement

 

  1. GUIDELINES

 

2.1              Advertising and sponsorships should only be sought with or accepted from

organisations, businesses and community groups where a clear and demonstrable benefit for the students and the school’s programs can be guaranteed.

2.2              Advertising and sponsorship arrangements should take into account the

values and views of the school community, as well as the School Charter and priorities.

2.3              Advertising and sponsorship arrangements should only be entered into

with organisations, businesses and community groups that have a good public image and are associated with products, services or activities that are appropriate for a school to align themselves with.

2.4              Advertising and sponsorship arrangements should not be entered into with

businesses that would promote tobacco or alcohol products.

2.5              Advertising and sponsorship arrangements that contain restrictions

regarding the school’s ability to purchase good and services freely, or that restrict the school’s ability to make choices in any way, will be avoided.

School Council on merit, and decisions will be made on a case-by-case basis.
