With recent changes in legislation there is a need for PVG checks to be carried out under some circumstances when parents are volunteering at these events. The check allows parents names to be held on file and allows them to help at events for 5 years, this does not mean you are required to help at each and every event, but by having a large list of names this will mean we have enough volunteers across each event.<\/p>\n<p>Parent Council members may be involved in:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>supporting the work of the school;<\/li>\n<li>gathering and representing parents\u2019 views to the head teacher, education authority and Education Scotland;<\/li>\n<li>promoting contact between the school, parents, pupils, and the local community;<\/li>\n<li>fundraising;<\/li>\n<li>organising events;<\/li>\n<li>reporting to the parent forum;<\/li>\n<li>being involved in the appointment of senior promoted staff; and<\/li>\n<li>providing a representative to the National Parent Forum of Scotland.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Parent council chairs can attend the Parent Council Liaison Group, which gives parent councils an opportunity to speak with elected members and senior managers from the Council about issues relating to education in Renfrewshire.\u00a0 These meetings take place four times a year and details are sent to Parent council chairs at the start of each new academic year.<\/p>\n<p>For more information on parental involvement or to find out about parents as partners in their child\u2019s learning, please contact the school or visit the Parentzone website at:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/education.gov.scot\/parentzone\">https:\/\/education.gov.scot\/parentzone<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.npfs.org.uk\/\">https:\/\/www.npfs.org.uk\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Parent Council Dates for 2025-2026 &#8211; All Parents Welcome to attend Meetings are held in the School Staff Room at 6pm 15th January 12th of March 14th of May &nbsp; Parent Council\u00a0 100 Club The Parent Council run a monthly 100 Club.
