Community Governor

We are looking for a member of the local community who would like to put their name forward as a community governor for the school. This is a nominated role, not an elected parent governor role. If you know someone in the local community who would be interested, please ask them to get in touch with the school.

WHAT IS FICPS?

Friends of Irchester Community Primary School (FICPS) is the friends association for Irchester Primary School. We have a long history of fundraising, generating thousands of pounds to provide a wide variety of additional equipment and activities for the benefit of every child in the school. Every parent or carer of a child at our school automatically becomes a supporting member of FICPS.

WHO ARE THE FICPS COMMITTEE?

We are a committee of Mums, Dads, friends, school staff and members of the governing body who offer our time and skills to support the school. Any one is welcome to join us, formally as a committee member or to support the running of events. FICPS is also a great way to get to know other people, learn more about the school and have some fun.

WHAT DO FICPS DO?

We arrange a wide range of activities and events for children, parents and friends throughout the year with the aim of raising additional funds to buy items that the school would not normally be able to afford due budget constraints. All profits go directly to the school.

FICPS in previous years have contributed towards playground equipment, Lab 13 equipment, sports equipment, Lego Robots, pantomime for the children and a Christmas present for every child.

FICPS support is much appreciated by the school and the funds raised help to make the school an exciting and well-resourced place for children to learn.

CAN YOU HELP?

We always need volunteers to help run events, assist with setting up activities through the committee. Or we are always looking for support from local businesses. We love to hear ideas for fundraising or new ways we could be supporting the school, so please get in touch if you think you can help in anyway by leaving your details with the school office.
