Parent representatives need to be nominated by existing EC members and are then elected each year during the Annual General Meeting (AGM). From the pool of Parent Representatives, the EC elects a Chairperson, Vice-Chairperson, Treasurer and a Secretary. The EC convenes about monthly. The Chairperson of the PTA, is also a member of the Committee of Parents (COMPAR), which comprises all ESF School PTA Chairpersons as well as the ESF Senior Executives. The COMPAR meets each term to give advice and comment on affairs of the ESF Foundation as a whole. The PTA also nominates one parent representative to sit on the Peak SCHOOL COUNCIL, which is effectively the Governing Body of The Peak School. In recent years, the Chairperson of the PTA has been this representative. Peak School parents can also elect one additional parent to be a 2nd member of the SCHOOL COUNCIL. This election might be organised by the SCHOOL COUNCIL and not the PTA.
