Parent Reps
Parent reps help bring our school community together by supporting communication, building connections between families, and offering a friendly point of contact for parents. It’s a supportive and voluntary role – not about having all the answers, but about helping families feel informed, included and involved.
Parent rep roles:
- Welcoming new families and helping them settle in.
- Encouraging a friendly, inclusive atmosphere amongst parents.
- Sharing occasional messages from the school that might be helpful to other parents.
- Encouraging respectful, clear communication between families and the school
- Listening if parents have general questions and pointing them to the appropriate member of staff if needed eg: class teacher, office staff.
- Reps don’t speak on behalf of others or get involved in individual concerns – those are always best raised directly with staff. They are not expected to attend Parent Forum ‘on behalf’ of the class.
- Occasionally being asked to share general parent views with school staff, always in a positive and constructive way.
- Occasionally, reminding parents that if a response to their question can wait until the next working day, that is what should happen.
- The role should last for one year, with different parents having the opportunity to take on the role.
Just to note: Parent reps aren’t expected to send reminders about calendar dates, trips or events already shared by the school through newsletters or the website. They are also not expected to organise collections or gifts.
