Parent Councils

The Parent Council is a group of parents who have been selected in accordance with the Parent Council Constitution to represent all the parents of children at their school Parents of any child can seek to be part of the Parent Council. The Councils will meet at least once each term and meetings are open to all parents who wish to attend.

The aims of the Parent Council are:-

• To work together with everyone involved in school life - parents, learners, teachers, school staff and the wider community.
• To make sure that all parents have a say in their children's education - and are able to express their views and wishes.
• To build links between the school, parents, pupils, nurseries and pre-school groups and the community.
