Welcome to the home page of Portlethen Academy Parent Council, or PAPC for short!
You can contact us via email at portlethenacademypc@gmail.com
You can also follow us on Facebook here and on X here to keep up to date.
PAPC is open to all members of the Parent Forum (the parents, guardians and carers with parental rights and responsibilities of pupils attending Portlethen Academy). We provide a voice for parents and carers on issues that are important to us and our young people, and we support the school in developing strong home/school partnerships. Parents and carers are the most important influence throughout a young person's education and family involvement in learning can and does make a real difference to our young people's achievements. We also raise funds to provide additional resources and activities.
Our office bearers for session 2026/2027 are:
Chair: Ian Bruce
Treasurer: TBC
Co-secretaries: Sonia Mendes
Our meetings for 2026/2027 are:

Tuesday 2nd March

All meetings take place in the staffroom from 19.30-21.00 or you can attend virtually via Microsoft Teams (links will be emailed).
