Parent Skills Survey 2019

Ripponlea Primary School Parent Skills Survey 2019

Ripponlea Primary School is proud of our strong culture of parent participation. To help us to connect parents' skills with opportunities to participate, we are asking all parents to complete this quick survey. We will use the information to update our database of parents' skills.

As always, your level of involvement is determined by you, based on your time constraints, availability and personal interest/skills.

The database is managed by the School and Community Partnership Committee. It is used by teachers and School Council. Teachers can use it to identify parents to join classrooms for specialist activities (e.g. a short presentation on your area of expertise). Council's past use includes identifying parents to assist with developing the new school brand and designing the new entrance to the school.

By filling in the survey, you are agreeing to be contacted by the school but as previously stated, you are free to determine if the opportunity to get involved is right for you at the time. Thank you!
