Parents’ Forum

Join us for our final Parents’ Forum for 2026 as we celebrate a special moment of being part of the national Creativity Collaboratives programme, marking five years of work with Arts Council England.
 
This session will contribute to the final Legacy Phase Evaluation led by Abi D’Amore and Associates, helping to understand the impact of Teaching for Creativity in schools and on your young people.
 
We warmly invite parents to share their experiences and perspectives on Friday 12th June from 10:30–11:10 with Abi and Mrs. Childs over coffee, biscuits, and informal conversation.
 
Your voice will play an important role in shaping the lasting legacy of this programme. Please let us know if you are able to attend using this link: Parents Forum – Fill out form

Penryn College is always working to improve the way the school is run. Parents and carers – staff need and always value your input. Perhaps you are a new parent/carer this year – how has the start of term been for you and your child? Do you have any recommendations on ways we could improve the experience? Or maybe you’ve been with us a while and have seen children move though different years and take exams. What feedback can you offer? Is there anything you’d like to suggest that could be done differently? Staff would like to know what works for you and what doesn’t work so well. That way, the school can make efforts to change and improve.  

An introduction to Parents' Forum, from a parent

Our forum of parents and staff meets regularly, and we’d be keen to have as many parents and carers as possible join.

We like to meet in person, but can include virtual meetings in our plans. If you can’t make the meetings, please e-mail any suggestions that you would like to be discussed; we will write minutes of the meetings so you can see the outcomes. Please e-mail parents@penryn-college.cornwall.sch.uk to contribute to this month’s meeting, informing us if you can join, or if you are unable to attend. Please let us know your thoughts on this meeting’s theme so we can include it in our discussions.
