Parent Council

Every parent is a member of the Parent Forum which elects a Parent Council each year.  Gairloch Primary has an active Parent Council, which represents the views of parents and supports the school in providing valuable educational experiences for the children. 

Current office bearers are:

         Chair - Terri Hendry

         Secretary - Scarlet Trevett        

         Treasurer - Gemma King

The Gairloch Primary Parent Council meets once or twice a term. Meetings are usually held in the evenings so that the majority of parents may attend.

The objectives of the Parent Council are:

• To promote partnership between the school, pupils and all parents

• 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 other matters affecting the education and welfare of the pupils

• To raise funds, apply for and receive grants and accept gifts for the benefit of the school.

The Parent Council is accountable to the Parent Forum.  Minutes are sent to all parents and may be viewed here.   The Annual General Meeting is usually held in the summer term of each year.

Any parent who wishes to raise an issue for the Parent Council to consider may do so by contacting gairlochprimarypc@gmail.com .
