You can also download the site as a podcast by pointing your podcast client towards http://podcasts.odiogo.com/bucksburn-school-parent-council/podcasts-xml.php or if you use itunes just click here.
It’s free and automatically generated and yet it’s surprisingly good quality. This should help enable those who can’t read the posts easily for whatever reason to better access our information.
I’ve registered http://bucksburn.info as the new address for this website – save it to your bookmarks!

If you wish to view the consultation document it is available by following this link (.pdf file) and there is a hard copy in the school.
The parent council/PTA have developed their own views on key points requiring attention and would encourage all parents to speak with us with any concerns and to find out our opinions.
