THE PARENT TEACHERS ASSOCIATION
The school has a flourishing Parent Teacher Association which is a most valuable asset to our school. All parents are automatically members of the Association whose principal aim is to develop strong home-school links enabling parents to become actively involved in the school. The annually-elected committee organises a variety of functions throughout the year, many of which provide funds for extra facilities for the school. In addition, social events are held, as are meetings on matters of educational interest.

GOVERNING BODY 2005-2006
School Governors make up the largest voluntary organisationin the U.K. We work in partnership with School, Parents, the local community and the Local Education Authority.
One-third of the governing body are parents of children in Brushwood, which allows a parents perspective to be well represented in the decisions that the governors make. At Brushwood our governing body is very active in supporting the Headteacher and Staff, whilst fulfilling our responsibility of holding the school to account. We ensure that government legislation is adhered to, but place a high value on Brushwood as an individual school with it's own identity. We hold an annual meeting to parents where they have an opportunity to hear what the governors have done on their behalf over that year and what it is looking to do in the next. Governors hold formal meetings at a minimum of once per term. These are Minuted and copies of the minutes are available on request from the school office.
