Mearns Parent Council Constitution
SCOTTISH SCHOOLS (PARENTAL INVOLVEMENT) ACT 2006
The Act makes provision for all parents to be members of the Parent Forum at a school, and to have their views represented to the school, Education Authority and others, through a representative Parent Council. The legislation supports parental involvement. It aims to help all parents to be:
- Involved with their child’s education and learning
- Welcomed as active participants in the life of the school
- Encouraged to express their views on school education generally and work in partnership with the school
The Parent Council has a role in the appointment of Head Teachers and Depute Head Teachers
The Parent Council for our school is known as:
Mearns Primary Parent Council
The Head Teacher and local Councillors may attend all meetings as advisors to the Parent Council and have the right to speak, although not being members of the Parent Council, no right to vote. A list of current members of the Council is available at the school office. The Chair of the Parent Council is Mark McFadyen who can be contacted by email: mppc.mark.mcfadyen@gmail.com.
