PALS

• PALS work with the Principal and the school Leadership to build effective cooperation and partnership between home and school.

• PALS should promote the goals of the school by creating a neutral social and cultural community.

• They should aim at creating a programme of social activities for parents with consultation and in accordance with the Headmistress and Management Team.

• PALS is not a forum for complaints.

• All school concerns can be addressed through an appointment with respective Coordinators or at the Parent-Teacher Meetings.

• Children should not be distracted from their normal school day activities.

• The PALS resources should be acquired by independent means and the school will only be available to help to a certain extent.

• During the week, the school facilities are in use every day. However, permission can be given to using them on Saturdays or after school. Please inform the school a minimum of 5 working days in advance for use of school facilities.

• Just like the children, our school staff cannot be pulled out from class as resources during the school day.
