MEET OUR FAMILY LIAISON OFFICER
Hello my name is Alison McConville and I am the Family Liaison Officer at Pendle Community High School.My role is to support families in a variety of ways while signposting to agencies, attending meetings and engaging parents to work in partnership with school. I am also the back up Designated Safeguarding Lead for any issues around school.
I am keen to get to know and support more parents and their families. I will be available at events such as Parents Evenings and coffee mornings, and any other events where parents can engage with the school. If you could find some time to attend any events it would be wonderful opportunity to get to know me and for me to get to know all of you and have an informal chat to see how we can work with each other and exchange ideas.
I have been a Family Liaison Officer in a primary school for over 15 years and worked with children and families for over 24 years. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, seeing friends and reading.
The staff at PCHS are always helpful and happy to help, any concerns raised are always dealt with promptly. A fantastic school overall that wants the best for pupils and families.
Parent, 2018Excellent communication from home to school. Children are happy, always a warm welcome. Outstanding Ofsted was well deserved. Having seen the Oliver production, I was overwhelmed by the fantastic performance. Well done to all the pupils and staff for all their hard work! Can’t wait for the next one!

The last day of term is as important as any other day but no more so than at Christmas. We have our last assembly of the year and also hold our very important Christingle at 1.00pm.
Students will finish school early at 1.30pm on Friday 21st December 2018. We would therefore be grateful if you could please make the necessary arrangements for your child on that day. This will enable staff sufficient time to clear away all the Christmas decorations and activities in order to facilitate effective cleaning and classroom preparation for the start of the new term in January. We will return to school on Monday 7th January 2019.
