Board responsibilities
Any identified historic heritage features must be identified in your school's 10 Year Property Plan.
If your school is planning any work that could affect a building or a feature with a heritage classification, you must get advice from the property advisor at your regional office. They can also help you identify whether you have a heritage or archaeological site at school.
