FoSMPS Class Reps

The FoSMPS committee is supported by a network of class reps assigned to each year group. ​

​

Class reps are voted in at our annual AGM in October; there are usually 2 per year group. 

​

The Role of a class rep is to: 

- Manage a WhatsApp group for their year group

- Post communications from FoSMPS committee to WhatsApp group for their year group (see here for WhatsApp Code of conduct) 

- Encourage year group parents/carers to participate in attending FoSMPS events and filling volunteering slots at events

- Organise the end of term teachers' gifts using an online collection tool ( e.g Viing)

- Remind their year group of key school communications, for example school events which have been communicated via Headlines newsletter/google classroom/tapestry/ school emails

- Organise class/year group meet up/drinks (once per term).  It is recommended that when termly FOSMPS social events are organised, that cost of living and inclusivity are taken into account. For example, organising a simple drinks night excludes fewer people than a paid for event. The termly social events are not for fundraising, so also consider if a paid for event may clash/divert money away form FOSMPS fundraising events if in doubt drop us a line at friends.stmatthews@gmail.com. If you have ideas for social events that could align with fundraising then please submit the idea using the form as outlined in the code of conduct 

​

 It is a great way to meet other parents and an invaluable way for us to build a school community and communicate and engage with parents/carers.
