Parent Council Membership
The detailed membership of the Parent Council is available from the school office and the chair can be contacted c/o Inveralmond Community High School.
Parents of students starting their first year at Inveralmond will be invited to a parents' meeting before the summer in which their child starts.
For each year in the school we try to organise a parents' meeting usually after the reports have been issued.
It is also school policy to contact parents should any problems arise relating to their child. This contact is usually made through the Guidance Staff or Head of House.
Parents are also encouraged to contact the school should they wish to discuss any matter relating to their children.
Members of staff are very willing to meet parents whenever their teaching commitments allow.
