We have a very active parent council who support our school with fundraising and events for our children and families.
- Subash Muniswamaiah – Chairperson
- Murray Henderson- Vice Chair
- John Leiper – Treasurer
- Fiona Kane – Vice Treasurer
- Nahid Ahmed – Secretary
They meet on a Wednesday once a month and would like to welcome others.
The Parent Council’s rights and duties include:
- supporting the school;
- representing the views of parents
- consulting with parents and reporting back to the Parent Forum on matters of interest;
- promoting contact between the school, parents, pupils, providers of nursery education and the wider community;
- fundraising;
- taking part in the selection of senior promoted staff;
- receiving reports from the head teacher and education authority; and
- receiving an annual budget for administration, training and other expenses.
Members of Parent Councils, on a voluntary basis, may also have an advisory role in decisions on placing request by parents in respect of those situations where the number of placing requests for a particular school or for a particular stage in a particular school exceeds the number of places available.
