Castlemilk High School

About the Parent Council

Parents and carers play a vital role in their child’s education. In recognition of this, the

Scottish Schools (Parental Involvement) Act 2006 both encourages and supports more parents, working in partnership with the school, to be involved in their child’s education.

The main aims of this act are:

to help parents become more involved with their child’s education and learning
to welcome parents as active participants in the life of the school
to provide easier ways for parents to express their views and wishes

Castlemilk High School has a very active Parent Council, with a core group of around 12 parents, who meet every 6 weeks. Meetings are lively and informal, and focus on sharing information, ideas and concerns between parents and school.

Dates for 2023

Fund Raising Race Night

Friday31st March at Castlemilk Bowling Club

The Parent Council has a formal constitution. Membership is open to all parents and carers.

It is important for all parents to know who their representatives are:

Effective communication is a key objective of the Parent Council. Parental views are always welcomed, and will be passed to the Council.

Minutes of meetings are available from the school office, downloaded below and they can be emailed to you if you wish.

Please contact reception at Castlemilk High School if you require further information.
