When parents and schools work together, children do better. The active involvement of parents at Glencryan, can help promote a learning community in which pupils can engage positively with school staff and their peers.

Parent Councils help to create an environment where all parents know that their views matter, and where they feel confident and comfortable putting  their views forward. They work on behalf of all parents to discuss matters that are of importance to us all. They do not get involved in individual circumstances relating to children or staff in the school.

Kirsty Murray Chairperson of the Glencryan Parent Council: 

‘The Glencryan Parent Council was re-established in 2022 and is made up of a number of members including parents,  the Head Teacher  and staff from the school. 

The Parent Council meets every two months to discuss ways to fundraise for the school and discuss what events we can plan for the children who attend our school.

We have held a variety of events including school discos and Christmas Fayres and we plan to host more.

For more information about the Parent Council please contact Kirsty  on 07376019052 or e mail Kirsty  Murray  on glencryanparentcouncil@gmail.com ‘

We are open to any parents or carers wishing to get involved – whether it is occasional offers of help, donations, skills and talents that you could offer once in a while or to be a regular part of our wider school life!  Anyone wishing to get involved should first contact the school.
