The EJS Parents’ Forum has an independent role separate to the Governing Body and the PTA. The Forum is made up of at least one parent representative per year group, ideally one per class, and a member from the school Senior Leadership Team.

The Forum meets with Mr Usher for an hour once every term to share the views, issues and compliments raised by parents. The meetings are also an opportunity for the school to gauge the opinion of parents.

Functions of the Parent Forum:

Current representatives:

Year 3 – Mell Morris & Emma Mitchell

Year 4 – Christine Leddy & Celine Gilart

Year 5 – Sara Bradley (Chair) & Helen Venfield

Year 6 – Christine Leddy, Vicky Gonçalves & Martina Smith

EJS – Jim Usher & Ruth Scales
