Parent Council Guide

Parent Council News 2026_27

The Parent Council is a group of parents selected by all parents in the school to represent their views. Parent Councils have an important role to play in school improvement by ensuring that the parental perspective is represented and taken into account.

The Parent Council helps to create an environment where all parents know that their views matter, and where they feel confident and comfortable putting them forward. They work on behalf of all parents to discuss educational matters that are of importance to all. They do not get involved in individual matters relating to children or staff in the school.

Please contact the school if you are interest in joining!

Trauma Informed Parenting Leaflet

These parenting techniques are for all children. Not only children with trauma. In these workshops our aim is to improve mental health and wellbeing, change generational patterns of behaviour by giving parents and caregivers an awareness of the trauma informed approach and how we can reduce challenging behaviours with curiosity, calm and connection.

Achieve

Achieve is an online resource which is ideal for Senior Phase pupils to help raise attainment (3.2) but also extremely useful for teaching and learning (2.3) purposes. There is a two pronged approach, one for pupils and one for teachers.

Pupils

Designed for Scottish students, their online digital courses are broken down to key topics and concepts, each clearly explained and illustrated. There are hundreds of links to free resources and SQA exam questions and solutions. Online assessments will test their understanding and help identify their strengths and areas for improvement.

Teachers

As well as supporting students, ACHIEVE can also help teachers monitor the progress of National 5 and Higher classes. ACHIEVE determines each student’s strengths and areas for improvement, and reports levels of confidence for all course topics. Used in school or remotely, ACHIEVE is also an ideal teaching tool for delivering course content, setting online assessments and facilitating home/remote learning.
