Rothesay Academy Parent Council


Welcome to Rothesay Academy Parent Council Web-page. Our aim is to help all Rothesay Academy parents get involved in all sorts of things to do with school life. Our meetings are open to all parents and are held a couple of times each term, All parents are warmly invited to attend and we aim to hold meetings that are informal and friendly. The purpose of these meetings is to give parents the chance to make suggestions that will contribute to school life and to raise any matters of general concern. Parents can ask questions about educational issues and find out about things that are happening in the school. The Parent Council is also involved in fundraising for the school, and we will provide regular up-dates about events and activities we are planning.

All parents are welcome in the school and can become involved in school life as much or as little as they are able. Whether you’d like to see more parent/pupil sports activities; if you have a skill you’d like to pass on; if you can offer to help with school trips; if you’d like advice on helping your child with homework or exam preparation or if you simply want to keep yourself informed about educational developments that affect your child, we’d love to hear from you. We don’t expect every parent to join the Parent Council or commit to attending regular meetings, just come along when you can.

If there is anything you’d like to raise at the next Parent Council meeting please contact the school office on 01700 503367.
