Carnoustie High School Parent Councils AGM

Parent Councils exist in a number of schools in Scotland with the remit to support school and
education departmental staff to ensure that education in schools is directed towards the development
of the personality, talents, and mental and physical abilities of school pupils in order to achieve their
full potential. 

This is instigated by means of promoting a) partnership between the school staff and the parent forum,
to which the parent council reports periodically, and  which is open to all individuals who have a child
at the respective schools, and, and b) links between the school and the wider community.
In essence, Parent Councils provide an opportunity for parents to influence the education agenda.

The Annual General Meeting of the Carnoustie High School Parent Council is being held on Tuesday
2 September at 7.00pm in the Carnoustie High School Theatre, to which parents and carers are
warmly invited.

The Parent Council is currently seeking new members, and details of the roles and activities will be
presented at the meeting.

Further details can be obtained from Mr Malcolm J B Finlayson Secretary, 11 Bankhead Crescent,
Arbroath, phone 01241 871446, or e-mail: chspc1972@yahoo.co.uk
