Parent Council

In August 2007, Parent Councils were introduced to replace School Boards.

The main purpose of a Parents’ Council is to increase opportunities for parents to become involved in their child’s education.

To identify and represent the views of parents on the education provided by the school and other matters affecting the education and welfare of the students;
