ABOUT THE PARENT
COUNCIL
|
The Parent Council replaces the former School Board and Parent-Teacher
Association. It came into being in 2007 as a result of new legislation.
At Madras College it consists of up to 30 parents elected from the Parent Forum,
and a range of co-opted members. The Parent Council aims
-
to work in partnership with the school to create a welcoming
school
-
to be inclusive for all (parents, pupils, teachers, wider
community)
-
to promote partnerships between the school, its pupils, all
its parents and community
-
to develop and engage in activities which support the
education and welfare of pupils
-
to identify and represent the views of parents on the
education provided by the school, and on other matters affecting the education
and welfare of the pupils
It is thus taking on the activities that used to be the remit of
the School Board and the PTA. The Constitution of the Council is available
from the link top right. There are also links there to the three working groups
that functioned in the first year of the Parent Council. Other links there are to external sources of
information about Parent Councils and the possible roles of parents in the life
of the School.
