Parent Council

The Parent Council plays an important part in the life and work of the school.  The role of the Parent Council is to:

  • Support the school in its work with students
  • Represent the views of all parents
  • Encourage links between the school, parents, students and the wider community
  • Report back to all parents
  • Play a role in the appointment of the Head Teacher and Depute Head Teachers
  • Support the school during school inspections
  • Fulfill a fundraising role

The Lasswade High School Parent Council Chair is Mrs Sara Adams.  She can be contacted by email on parentcouncil.lasswadehs@midlothian.education
