ACT Parents – representing more than 60,000 public school parents and carers across the Territory – says today’s unexpected closure of several ACT public schools has left many families seeking certainty and clear information.

ACT Parents, the peak body representing more than 60,000 ACT public school parents, has criticised the decision to hold an inquiry focused on a single school project, warning that it undermines fair and transparent planning across the public school system. 

As reforms to early childhood education continue across the ACT, parents are calling for more support to help keep children safe in care settings.

This Spring Canberrans can look forward to fetes, fairs, and community days bringing school grounds across the city to life with food, fun, and entertainment.

The ACT Council of Parents and Citizens Associations is deeply disappointed that the ACT Government has failed to deliver on its election promise to fund a trial of an independent parent advocacy service in the 2025–26 Budget.
