Welcome to our area of the website
Parent Councils were set up to replace School Boards following an Act of Parliament called the Parental Involvement Act. The underpinning thrust of the Parental Involvement Act is to actively promote the involvement of parents in their child’s education and welfare at home and in school.
The Whalsay Parent Council has a representative for every year group, see below. The rep will actively try to ensure that every parent is informed of what the Parent Council is doing, and will be encouraging parents to contact them with ideas, concerns, issues, basically anything parents believe the Parent Council can help with in anyway.
Next Parent Council Meeting – Tuesday 20th February 2024 at 5.30pm – Please contact your class rep with any issues/questions you would like raised.
