Proposed Amendment to Parent Council Constitution

The following amendment to the Constitution is being proposed by the Parent Council. If there are no objections by the evening of the AGM on 25 April,  the amendment will be made:

Point 4 – to add a paragraph “If any member of the Parent Council fails to turn up for three meetings in a row and they do not provide their apologies for absence, then their membership of the Parent Council can be removed by a vote of the remaining members. The absentee parent will be informed in writing by the Chair or Secretary of the Parent Council’s decision and why.”
