Parent Forum

Miss Page is our Parental Engagement Champion (PEC). She can answer any general questions you may have about the school, such as:

  • Queries relating to the organisation of the day
  • School Events
  • General Learning Enquiries

Every term she will run a parent forum. These will be held at different points during the school day to enable as many people to come as possible.

The parent forum

​A school’s parent forum automatically includes every parent/carer with a child enroled at St Francis, and are a way for parents to get involved in school life. They are informal groups where parents can raise issues, be consulted on school policy and give their views.
As a member, you have:

  • a right to advice and information about your child’s education at the school
  • the opportunity to be more involved with what the school is doing
  • the opportunity, along with all the other parents, to have your views represented through a Parent Council at your school.

When parents are involved in their child’s education, children do better on a wide range of measures.
These positive effects include:

  • Better behaviour
  • More confidence and greater self-esteem
  • Higher attendance rates
  • More enthusiasm about learning
  • Better results.

 

Below you’ll find a record of the agendas and minutes from previously held forums.
