Our main aims are to:



Help parents become more involved in their child’s education and learning
Welcome parents as active participants in the life of the school
Provide easier ways for parents to express their views and wishes

All parents are automatically members of the Parent Forum and are entitled to have a say in what happens at the school. As a member of the Parent Forum, parents have a say in selecting the Parent Council (the representative body) to work on behalf of all parents at the school.

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 and the wider community
Report back to the Parent Forum





The Scottish Parliament passed a law called the Scottish Schools (Parental Involvement) Act 2006 to encourage and support more parents to become involved in their children’s education.
For more information on the Parental Involvement Act or to find out about parents as partners in their children’s learning, please contact the school or north Ayrshire Council Educational Services or visit the Parentzone website on www.parentzonescotland.gov.uk.

The Scottish Parent Teacher Council (www.sptc.info/) website also contains a variety of interesting information for parents alongside Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Schools website (www.hmie.gov.uk).
