Following recent new legislation on parental involvement, all parents are now members of their school’s Parent Forum. The Forum elects a smaller body of parents called the Parent Council to represent them to the school and to the Education, Culture and Sport Service of the Highland Council.
The role of the Parent Council is to:
- support the school in its work with pupils
- represent the views of all parents
- encourage links between the school, parents, pupils, pre-school groups and the wider community
- report back to the Parent Forum
The Parent Council meets regularly throughout the session and parents are welcome to put forward items for the agenda and also attend meeting. The ethos of the Parent Forum and Council is one of cooperation to promote engagement between the school and parents.
