By the close of nominations at the start of term, we had received one nomination for the vacant post on the Parent School Partnership. Under the rules, this means that no election is required and the nominee, Vicky Cole, is duly appointed!
Vicky is an experienced secondary school teacher with a child in first year at Knox. She is enthusiastically looking forward to contributing to the work of the PSP.
Congratulations Vicky!
At next week’s AGM, an updated Parent School Partnership Constitution will be considered by the meeting to decide whether to adopt it. A copy of the draft can be read by clicking revised-draft-constitution.

Early in the New Year the Knox Parent School Partnership (PSP) is hoping to arrange a meeting with the school to discuss the issue of the Knox Combined Cadet Force (CCF). We welcome comments from parents and interested parties on this issue which will be used to inform our discussions with the school. Comments can be submitted to this post. Comments already submitted can be read on our previous post on this subject.

The last PSP meeting was held in Knox Academy on Wednesday 2 December 2009, the next meeting is scheduled for February 3rd, 2010.
The topic of the disbandment or otherwise of the Knox Academy CCF was not raised at the December meeting so news of the cessation of this activity has come with some surprise.
