Each class at Olveston school has a parent representative.  Parents can volunteer to become a representative for that class and have termly meetings to discuss items that are of importance to the school community.  If a parent has something in particular they would like to bring to our attention, they could contact the parent representative for their child's class and it would then go on the agenda for the next meeting.  Meetings are held termly and and include members of the school staff, governors and stake holders as well as Mrs Luke, Headteacher.

​

There is a wide variety of points of discussion held at the meetings, including some of the following:

​

School Funding

Website and communications

South Glos. Health Survey results

Health in School Award – children’s mental well-being

Parent Consultation Evenings

Helping in school
