The Parents' Association

The Parents' Association of Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys has a long tradition of fund raising for worthy projects whilst at the same time providing a social environment for all parents of Langton pupils to enjoy.

As Parents or Guardians of pupils, you automatically become members of the Parents' Association. You are also welcome to join the Committee, attend Committee Meetings and help to decide on events and shape the role of the PA.

This role is changing, and although the PA is still very much a fund raising and social group, it has also diversified to become a conduit between parents and the school, organising Awareness Evenings on such topical issues as Bullying, Sex Education, Drugs and Alcohol Awareness, and generally providing a voice for parents.

The Parents' Association is also able to offer you independent advice based on its members’ own experiences, and by having direct contact with the school’s Senior Management Team, can represent your views when appropriate.

Parents who feel that they would like to become more involved, but would rather not join the Committee, are welcome as helpers at events, or they may have skills that could be utilised in helping out with Clubs, or other joint ventures.

The Parents' Association also provides a weekly Uniform Shop, staffed by volunteers, open every Tuesday lunchtime.  Uniform is available at very competitive prices, with the advantage that all profits go to the school.
