Across the campus, there are two Parent Councils – one representing the secondary stage (Ardnamurchan High School) and one representing Strontian Primary School. Both operate under the provisions of the Scottish Schools (Parental Involvement) Act 2006, which recognises the value of parental involvement and aims to make it a central part of the education system.

Ardnamurchan High School

The Ardnamurchan High School Parent Council represents parents and carers of young people in the secondary stages. It works in partnership with the school to support improvement, enhance communication and contribute to the wider life of the campus.

The Parent Council meets termly to discuss school developments, events and opportunities to support learners. The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is held each year in March/April. The Head Teacher attends meetings to provide advice and support, and the Council may co-opt members from the wider community.

Strontian Primary School

The Strontian Primary Parent Council represents parents and carers of children in the nursery and primary stages. It was established in August 2007 and plays an active role in promoting parental involvement and supporting the life and work of the school.

All parents and carers are members of the Parent Forum, with Parent Council members elected from this group. The Council may also co-opt additional members, including staff, pupils and members of the wider community.

The Primary Parent Council seeks parental views regularly through meetings, the AGM, surveys and school events such as open afternoons and parents’ evenings. It promotes an open and welcoming environment where parents feel confident engaging with the school and discussing their child’s learning.

• Chair: Vicky Balnaves-Aitken
• Secretary: Matt Simpkinson
• Treasurer: Vacancy

We value the important role that parents and carers play across all stages of our campus and are committed to working in partnership to support the learning, wellbeing and success of all children and young people.
