As a parent, are you aware of what your child is doing at school? Do you know how well he/she is performing? What new developments have taken place in the educational system and the school curriculum?

If you feel out of touch with what schools are doing, and as a parent would like to know more, the parents forum would be an ideal base to start from.

The benefits

Information on the National Curriculum and which      subjects & courses are taught at school.
Increasing parental participation in your child's
     school or nursery

Developing better links with your child's teacher and      schools.
Help with understanding what teachers have to say
     at parents' evenings.

Information on the role of the Governing body and      Parent Teachers Association (PTA)
Enhance participation with Parent Teachers      Associations in general and schools in particular
Understanding the role of the Career Service in your      child's education

The forums are held within your locality and delivered by bilingual Officers
