Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools (MACS) has been established by Archbishop Peter A Comensoli to be responsible for the governance and operation of approximately 300 parish primary schools and regional and archdiocesan secondary colleges in the Archdiocese of Melbourne.
MACS governs and supports Catholic schools in the Archdiocese to continue the mission of Catholic education to proclaim the Good News and equip our young people with the knowledge, skills and hope to live meaningful lives and enrich the world around them.
The CECV acts as the overarching, strategic planning and policy-making body for the Catholic school system in Victoria.
The CECV has a strategic role in promoting and advocating for Catholic education. We act as the representative body of Catholic schools in Victoria with Australian and State governments, and other relevant organisations and agencies.
The CECV receives government grants and distributes these funds to schools. We also report to government on Catholic schools' use of these public funds in accordance with legislation.
The CECV has responsibility for the education of about 207,000 students within Victoria (2015 census) and is supported by the Catholic Education Offices of the four Dioceses: Melbourne, Ballarat, Sandhurst and Sale.
