For Parent Councils – sharing ideas

This recent article on BBC Education caught my eye about school fairs and what they say about both schools and parental involvement more generally. Parent Councils around Scotland will also have been involved in running the school fair at the end of the summer term. Not all in the article is relevant to Scotland, but I can certainly associate with the comment from Annette Wiles of the National Confederation of Parent Teacher Associations – fairs are more than just fundraising, they play a role in helping parents, the school and and their communities to build stronger relationships.
