Community Council

Governance of our school:  The Elliot Foundation Academies Trust is the governance body responsible for the school as a whole with the Board of Trustees accountable for decisions made. For more information on the Trust and how our governance structure works, please visit www.elliotfoundation.co.uk (Trust Governance and Community Council documents) noting in particular the Scheme of Delegation and Accountability and Representation documents. The Trust Legal and Governance Director can also be emailed on jem.shuttleworth@elliotfoundation.co.uk 

Welcome and Introduction to our Community Council

The Trust governance model recognises that Community Councils are, whilst a full and formal part of the governance structure in line with the Trust’s Articles of Association, wholly advisory bodies who focus on;

  • The ethos and values of the school

  • The ambition, appropriateness and effectiveness of the school's curriculum for its children

  • The wellbeing of pupils, families and staff

Our Priorities for 2022-2023 are:

Writing To increase the number of children achieving ARE in writing across all year groups

Maths - To increase the number of children achieving ARE by increasing their knowledge of mathematical vocabulary

Assessment - To use multiple  assessment information to maintain consistently high expectations across all areas of the curriculum

Community councillors are a much valued group of volunteers that play a crucial role in our school offering challenging but positive and proactive support to the Headteacher and Senior Leadership team on behalf of the children and community that the school serves. They know and celebrate the strengths of the community that the school serves alongside holding the highest aspirations and expectations for our pupils.  

Community councillors are appointed from current parents and staff alongside committed individuals from the wider community. Councillors have an interest in the education and wider opportunities offered by the school to all pupils and have some free time to give to supporting the school vision and aim for every child to develop and enjoy their time at school, learning and progressing to further education.

If you are interested in finding out more about the Parkfield Community Council, please contact Alison Holding, aholding@parkfieldprimary.org

The community council is scheduled to meet four times in each school year, and their activities will include visiting during the school day.
