Additional approval requirements for non-government schools teaching with animals
In addition to Victorian Schools Animal Ethics Committee approval, non-government schools must apply for a licence to use animals for teaching activities. The licence is free and must be renewed at a fixed interval. Government schools do not need to apply for a licence because they are covered under the department's licence.
Application forms for Scientific Procedures Premises Licence (Schools) and additional information are available at: Agriculture Victoria Scientific Procedures Premises .
