The PTA, as its name suggests, is an association of the Parents and Teachers in our school (PTA). The most important thing to remember is that every parent of the school is a PTA member by default.
Each class is represented by at least one parent who is called the Class Representative (CR) who form the executive committee of the PTA. From among parents, a President, Vice President and Treasurer are appointed. The Principal of the school is by default the PTA’s Secretary.
The PTA meets at least twice in a term and holds the Annual General Meeting (AGM), which makes it five meetings in a school year. The first meeting is for all parents of the school. Other than these meetings there will be class meeting of the PTA.
At Al-Furqan English Higher Secondary School, the school and parents are partners in child rearing and it is important to understand each others’ roles. The PTA of Al-Furqan is not a body for collective bargaining or a grievance redressal forum, it is a proactive PTA that gives appropriate feedback to the school management through the Principal, regarding the functioning of the school. The PTA committee of Al-Furqan has always put the best interest of the kids first and will do so for years to come. It has helped a lot of young children bloom to their full potential by providing a helping hand to children and parents in need.
The best school is one where parents, teachers and the school management have a shared vision and achieve it together. We the PTA of Al-Furqan are the binding glue that brings all the teachers, students and parents to work together in creating a wonderful place for our children to grow and flourish.
