At the start of the new school year, a new Parent Council of 15 parents is elected to represent all parents of Alford Academy (the term “Parent” applies to parents, guardians and carers with parental rights and responsibilities). The Parent Council includes parents from each of the year groups and would particularly like to encourage new S1 parents to volunteer – to find out more about how the Parent Council operates you can read our Constitution.
