Directory of Schools 2024

 

The Catholic Religious Institute and Ministerial Public Juridic Person Victorian Schools Limited (CRMV) company represents the interests of Catholic schools in Victoria which historically were owned and governed by Congregations or Religious Institutes. It acts as a consultative forum for the debate of issues related to Catholic education, particularly as these pertain to Religious Institute and Ministerial Public Juridic Person schools and maintains lines of communication with the Catholic Education Commission of Victoria.  It acts as a point of referral of issues related to the future governance of these schools and it also liaises with the Principals of Religious Institute and PJP schools.

The Governance arrangements of some of these schools have changed in recent years with some Religious Institutes giving responsibility for the governance of the school to Incorporated Boards and Ministerial Public Juridic Persons. A Ministerial Public Juridic Person is a legal entity under canon law that allows the Church's ministries to function in the name of the Catholic Church.

Persons wishing to raise concerns about issues associated with any of these schools are encouraged in the first instance to make contact with the Principal.  Contact details for each school can be found in the Directory, listed according to Suburb/Town.   At times when it is not appropriate to contact the Principal, such persons are invited to make contact with the person with delegated responsibility for school issues as recorded below.
