Parent Council
Portessie Primary has a Parent Council. Elections take place on a two yearly cycle and the school sends the information directly to parents prior to the event. We are fortunate in being well supported by a great team of parent representatives on our Parent Council.
We recognise that parents are the first and foremost educators of their children and know them best. We strive towards promoting parent and school partnership and the Parent Council exists to:
- support the school in its work with pupils
- represent the views of parents
- promote contact between the school, parents, pupils and the local community
- report annually to the parent forum
Parent Support Group (PSG)
The school is supported by a very active and vibrant Parents Support Group (PSG) who organise a number of fund raising events throughout the year such as Family Barbecue, Christmas Fayre, Quiz Nights, Soup and Sweet to name but a few. As well as this they support with help at Bulb Show, School Sports etc. This is open to all parents to join and is constituted annually as a Sub-committee of the Parent Council.
Parents are encouraged to offer support to the school through involvement with this group which ultimately helps the school in developing a community led school with a supportive ethos covering all aspects of both financial and physical support to the school, staff and pupils. For further information, parents should contact the school office in the first instance
