Watton-at-Stone Primary and Nursery School

Parent Forum

What is the Parent Forum?

The Parent Forum is a partnership between parents and the school. It consists of a group of parents who meet regularly with the Head Teacher. The Parent Forum is made up of one parent representative for each year group.

The key aims of the Parent Forum are:

• to share information, knowledge and skills
• to support good communication between parents and the school
• to discuss issues of importance to parents and consider possible actions to address those issues
• to allow parents to present new ideas that will benefit the school community to the Head Teacher

How often does the Parent Forum meet?

The Parent Forum meets once every term. Meeting dates are set out in the Dates for your Diary section of the weekly school newsletter.

What is discussed at the meetings?

At each meeting the Head Teacher shares information on issues or developments affecting the school and asks for feedback from parents. Parent representatives can also add items to the agenda for discussion. Minutes of the meeting are taken and are published on the school website.
