Meeting Minutes 9th June

Read the minutes of the latest Parent Council meeting held on 9th May - Minutes 9th June 2008

There are some really important issues here so please give us your feedback.

Composite P2/P3 Class for 2008/09

Back in May, the Parent Council wrote to Don Ledingham (ELC - Education) expressing our concern about the proposed number of classes for the new school year and in particular the composite P2/P3 class. The response from Mr Ledingham can be found here: Don Ledingham response to PC letter

What you think - give us your comments please.

Budget Cuts

All parents and carers should have received a letter today from the Parent Council outlining the budget cuts the school is facing - a copy of the letter can be found here Letter to Parents & Carers re budget cuts June 2008.

It it absoutely vital that you give us your thoughts and comments preferably as comments to this post. In this way, we can demonstrate the strength of feeling and get something done about it!

Cars

You may have noticed that the police have been patrolling Victoria Road and Meadowpark at key times in an effort to support the school in promoting a more responsible attitude amongst drivers (parents / carers) who still insist on dropping off and picking up children in these areas.

Please show consideration to all the children and park your car well away from the school.

Proposed number of classes

Current planning by ELC suggests there will only be 11 classes for the school year commencing Aug 2008 comprising 4 x P1; 3 x P2; 3 x P3 and 1 composite P2/P3. The PC will be writing to Don Ledingham shortly to voice our concerns but what you do think? Please give us your comments.

Length of lunchtime

At the PC meeting held on 28th April, concern was raised about the length of the lunchtime break especially for P1s - see minutes for more details. What do you think? Give us your comments.

P4 Class Sizes at Kings Meadow

At the PC meeting of 18th Feb, concern was again raised about the projected P4 classes at Kings Meadow for the school year starting Aug 2008 - see minutes for more details. Debbie Strachan, PC Chair, has written to Don Ledingham (Acting Director of Education & Children’s Service, ELC) and Donald McGillivray (Headteacher Kings Meadow). Copies of the letters can be found in ‘PC Docs‘. What do you think - please give us your thoughts?
