Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum Minutes 16.2.2022

What is our Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum? 

The Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum at Selly Oak Trust School is a curriculum focussed partnership meeting between parents, carers and the school. It is a valuable way to share ideas, views and make suggestions for improvements to the curriculum we deliver.  

The aims of the Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum will be to: 

• work together to further improve the education provided for our students in and out of school
• share ideas, information and skills in a mutually supportive environment
• further improve communications between parents, carers, staff and governors

The Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum is not the place to share concerns or complaints involving individual children, families or members of staff.

Who can be part of the Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum? 

Any parents and carers of students currently at Selly Oak Trust School are welcome to join Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum meetings.  The forum will be chaired by Mr James Hawkins, Assistant Headteacher.  At times other members of the school community will also attend the meetings depending on the agenda items and what the school feels they would like to share with the parents, such as new initiatives or planned changes to our curriculum. 

Why should I be part of the Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum? 

We really value parent and carer input on how to improve. The meetings give parents and carers an opportunity to get together on a regular basis with staff to suggest ideas and discuss how things could be improved. 

How often will the Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum meet? 

Every half-term for about an hour during the school day, currently on Microsoft Teams.  

What will be discussed at the Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum meetings? 

Anything related to improving our educational offer and further developing the partnership between the school, parents and carers.  The meetings will be informal and are on opportunity for an open discussion.  Minutes of the meetings will be taken, and these will be accessible on the school's website. 

How do I join the Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum or share an idea? 

We'd love for you to join us at one at our next meeting. If you would like to be part of the Parent & Carer Curriculum Forum please email to Mr Hawkins at enquiry@sellyoak.bham.sch.uk. If you have ideas but are unable to attend, send an email to the address above and they will pass it onto Mr Hawkins who will bring it up for discussion at the meeting.
