PARENT COUNCIL
The Parent Council is a body of parents/carers, as well as community and school representatives. It is set up to represent the Parent Forum, which itself consists of all parents/carers of pupils attending Lawhead Primary School and Nursery.
Constitution

Communication
We primarily communicate through a private, closed Facebook Group for parents and carers of children at the school. It has been set up by the Parent Council to help communicate our events and fundraisers, latest news and to create a welcoming environment for discussion and engagement with the wider parent forum. If you have children at the school and are not already a member, please do join the group to find out more information – “Lawhead Primary School Parent Council.“
The opinion of every parent/carer involved with the school is important and valued. As such, the Parent Council is always keen to hear parents’ views on issues affecting the School and their children’s education and welcome new ideas and suggestions.
Please feel free to contact any member of the Parent Council directly, either through Facebook or in person or alternatively using the following email address – lawheadschoolcouncil@gmail.com.
Remember…It is only by volunteering and working together that we can make a school we can continue to be proud of!
Some easy ways that you can support the Parent Council:
- Go Fund Me page – gofundme.com/f/lawhead-primary-school
With all the restrictions that have been in place this last year, the Parent Council have been hugely limited in what we can do to raise funds to help contribute to school projects and equipment for children to benefit from. We have been keen to still achieve our usual fundraising goals and a popular suggestion from parents within the school to help achieve this was to set up a ‘Go Fund Me’ page, which has now been set up however there is NO obligation or pressure to contribute. Alternatively BACS transfers are still an option if you prefer.
