How does PV work being allocated? Do u tell the school what you want to do or they will allocate?

From my experience,I had submitted a PV application.In the form there was a entry for skill.I filled up my skills.
They have traffic duty,internal school activities such as racial harmony day during recess and sometimes after school and excursion trips.
I gave my flexible hours to incharge of PV.I chose the activities that in my flexible hours and my husband can do also.

I can second that experience!!

For Catholic schools, only Catholics then can apply?

under phase 2b, yes only catholics. for other phase, no need to be catholics.

i think her qns is whether non-catholics can be PV for catholic schools

But Catholics are automatically in 2B, they don't need to be PV. So Catholic schools' PVs are definitely non-Catholics.

You can never be \"not in any phrase\". Phase 3 is all encompassing to cover even the foreigners.

The standard practise is to submit the form the year your child turns 4yo.

But if you are going to PV for schools which require parents to work 80 (or more) hours instead of the standard 40, then you should submit your form the year your child turns 3.
