Sir E Scott School Parent Council

All parents and guardians of SES children are automatically members of the SES Parent Forum. The Parent Forum has elected a Parent Council that meets twice during the school term, with representation from nursery, primary and secondary sectors.  There are also staff members. We have a very active parent council. A large part of the remit of the parent council is to improve communication between parents/carers and the school.

Supporting the school by fundraising is another important part of the council’s role. New ideas for either of these activities are always welcome. Get involved! Contact any member of the Parent Council for more information. The Parent Council is accountable to the Parent Forum for Sir E Scott School and will make a report to it at least once each year on its activities on behalf of all the parents.

The Annual Meeting will be held in September of each year. A notice of the meeting including date, time and place will be sent to all members of the Parent Forum at least two weeks in advance. The meeting will include:

  • A report on the work of the Parent Council and its committee.
  • Selection of the new Parent Council.
  • Discussion of issues that members of the Forum may wish to raise.
  • Approval of the accounts and appointment of the auditor.
