PARENT COUNCIL AGM – TUESDAY 30th AUGUST, 7PM ONLINE

The Parent Council AGM will be held online on Tuesday 30th August at 7pm. 

At the AGM we elect the officials – Chair, Vice and Treasurer.  This year in particular we are looking for a new treasurer and vice chair as Belinda & Laura (who have done amazing jobs) are stepping down. These are obviously crucial roles, the vice chair provides much needed support for the chair, taking on some of the work to allow more to get done. The treasurer handles the accounts and and without it pretty much all our endeavours will grind to a halt as we will be unable to either fundraise or pay out funds to support the school and our children.

If you have a few hours a month to either provide organisational support or to keep the books right and a hand on the purse strings please do consider it. Although it’s helpful to have the vice & the treasurer at our meetings you don’t have to commit to every one, just to keep us informed. If you want to know more, please e-mail   parentcouncil@dunbarprimary.elcschool.org.uk

Opportunity for involvement: Education Appeals Committee

East Lothian Council is looking for new parent representatives to sit on its Education Appeals Committee.

The Committee hears appeals against refusal of placings requests or exclusion from school & is key in supporting freedom of choice for parents in the schools which they wish their children to attend.

Meetings of a committee mostly occur late May/early June when placing requests for admission in the forthcoming school year are heard. Meetings out with this period are rare but do happen and you should generally be available to attend meetings but notice of several weeks will be given.

If you would be interested in getting involved please contact Fiona Currie, Clerk to the Education Appeal Committee, by e-mail: fcurrie@eastlothian.gov.uk no later than Thursday 31st March 2022
