All parents of both Portway Schools are automatically members of the Portway Parent and Teacher Friend Association (PTFA) and our meeting events are open to all.
Our PTFA do a wonderful job supporting our school and helping us to raise much-needed funds to continue to enhance our offer for our pupils.
The aim of the PTFA is to:
1) Enhance the education and wellbeing of pupils by providing or supporting provision of facilities and resources through fundraising.
2) Promote positive close co-operation between parents and school staff.
3) Provide activities and events to support and enhance school provision
4) Support the development of the school community
The PTFA's purpose is "to strengthen the Portway family of pupils, parents, friends and teachers through community events that raise funds for the school, which supports the experiences on offer to our children whilst helping to foster a love of learning."
