- Published: 14 July 2010
PARENTS in Offaly should be actively involved in the development of school policies.
That’s according to “Supporting Each Other – a guide to best practice for the effective partnership between Principals and Parent Associations” which was launched by Tanaiste Mary Coughlan recently.
The publication was jointly developed by the Irish Primary Principals’ Network (IPPN) and National Parents Council – Primary (NPC–P). It is an historic publication, as it is the first-time that collaboration at this level (between parents and principals) has taken place in the Irish Education System.
Launching the publication, An Tánaiste and Minister for Education and Skills said it is vital that there are strong and healthy lines of communication between principals and parent associations.
