Professional Learning: Live Online Sessions

To complement on-demand digital learning in MyConnect for staff working for Connect's Member local authorities, we run regular live online sessions. Check here if your local authority is a Connect Member - 28 out of Scotland's 32 local authorities are! Upcoming sessions are listed in MyConnect here.

Live online sessions include:

  • Working in Partnership with Parents and Parent Councils

The aims of this session are to gain a clearer understanding of: Parent Councils, the Scottish Schools (Parental Involvement) Act 2006, the importance of a Parent Council constitution, key roles and responsibilities of a Parent Council and a focus on the opportunities and importance of working together with parents and the Parent Council.

  • Co-Production for School Improvement

This session will cover: what co-production means, why parents matter, the role of parents, the Parent Forum and the Parent Council, challenges and barriers and the importance of working beyond the school gate.
