we've actually got 3..the normal deputy, then 2 others...an ap (asistant principal) of welfare and an ap of cirriculum
but the normal 1's the real deputy, in charge of everything

we have two...i think when the size of ur school gets to a certain number they bring in another...we used to only have one

our ones are so annoying! they go outta their way to make school hell....i mean they don't do much...they do our hsc entries...and if u need early leavers u get them to sign and stuff...but they ask a million questions like "why are u making appointments in school hours? who's funeral are u going to?" and "no you cannot have a mufti day at all" they're really annoying and everyone (incl the staff) hate them!!

Our old DP was great.

UAI estimates after every exam, he was a champ. Plus he did more work then our principle ever does....

my high school has two... we only had one until yr10, i think, the new one is reallyw eird and fake o__O

i'm not sure exactly what each of their positions are, but the old one does a lot of the uniform check stuff, early leavers, school stuff... the new deputy took care of a lot of hsc stuff. (obviously they did a lot of other stuff too lol)

OMg bubz :D you have the same birthday as me, onlya year older. anyway.
Same as bubz :D, i suspect you may have gone to my school, lol.
The old DP we see around heaps, always wandering around, was relieving principal when ours became superintendent briefly. He's cool.

Our deputy principal usually takes care of punishments, and we had to get him to fill out our forms to drop classes and drive to school. The deputy seems to run the school more than the actual principal

We have one.. he's great - both the principal and the dep are great, they work tog really well and are always open for u to talk to them. they are also there for enforcement of school rules, PR all that stuff. at my old school the dep and the principal would send u to ur year advisor -- at my new school .. they want u to talk to them about things. theyre really friendly and supportive!

ive found personally its easy to talk to the deputy if u have problems then ur yr advisor coz ur deputy can generally have more pwer and take action to fix stuff, although the deputies have lots of work and are really busy and its hard for them to find a time to talk with you
