Diocese of Ballarat Catholic Education Limited (DOBCEL) is the company established by Bishop Paul Bird to become the governing body for schools in the Ballarat Diocese.  This includes St Columba’s School Ballarat. At our school, and in compliance with the Victorian Registration and Qualification Authority (VRQA), we believe that it is imperative that all members of the school community have access to all school policies and procedures. A shared understanding and knowledge of the policies and procedures that regulate the school ensure effective partnerships between all members of the school community.

To ensure that all members of the school community have access to all relevant school documentation, electronic copies of the policies can be found below, and hard copies of these documents are also available through the school office. In addition to these two main sources, selected school documentation may be published via our communication platforms.
