What is the Aim of the Parent’s Association?
- Implement a programme of activities through parental/guardian involvement that will be of benefit and interest to our children.
- Provide opportunities for discussion and information around issues of common interest to parents/guardians and support parents in the school
- Be a channel for communication between parents/guardians and the school.
- The Parent Association works with the principal, staff and the board of management
to build effective partnership of home and school.
- Educational research on the involvement of parents in schools shows that children achieve higher levels when parents and teachers work together.
- The Parent Association can advise the principal and Board of Management on policy issues and incidents that may require a review of school policy, e.g. Bullying, Safety, Homework, Enrolment, Behaviour problems etc.
