'I have come that they might have life, and have it to the full' John 10:10
What is the Parent Forum?
The Parent Forum is a partnership between parents and the school. It is a valuable way to share ideas, views, concerns and make suggestions for improvement.
The aims of the Parent Forum will be to:
· work together to improve the education provided for our children
· share information, knowledge and skills
· meet in a mutually supportive environment
· further improve communications between parents/carers and staff/governors
The parent forum does not have any statutory responsibilities, duties or powers in the school.
Who can be part of the parent forum?
Any parent/carer of children currently at East Bergholt CEVC Primary School is welcome to join any parent forum meeting. The forum will be chaired by Mrs Clare Sampson or Mrs Laura Tuttlebee. At times other members of the school community will also attend the meetings depending on the agenda items and what the school feels they would like to share with the parents, such as new initiatives.
Why should I be part of the parent forum?
It gives you, the parent, an opportunity to get together on a regular basis with other parents to have your say on what the school is doing well, and suggest ideas of how things could be improved.
How often will the Parent Forum meet?
Every half-term for about an hour. Each half-term the Parent Forum meeting will be held at different times to try to enable as many different parents to attend who wish to. The dates of the Parent Forums are as follows:
09:00 - Tuesday 5th November 2024 with writing presentation by Mrs Plummer (Autumn 2)
18:00 – Thursday 9th January 2025 (Spring 1)
09:00 – Tuesday 4th March 2025 with reading presentation by Miss Scott (Spring 2)
18:00 – Thursday 1st May 2025 (Summer 1)
09:00 – Tuesday 10th June 2025 with maths presentation by Mrs Felgate (Summer 2)
What will be discussed at the meetings?
Anything related to improving the school and further developing the partnership between the school and parents. The meetings will be informal and are on opportunity for an open discussion. Minutes of the meetings will be taken and these will be accessible on the school's website. It is not the forum to discuss concerns or complaints involving individual children, families or members of staff.
How can I raise an issue?
Come to the meeting and bring it up during the open discussion. If you are unable to attend send an email to the school office and they will pass it on to Mrs Sampson or Mrs Tuttlebee who will bring it up at the meeting.
