We are very fortunate at Bishop Road to have a thriving PTFA that has been an integral part of the school community for many years. All parents and all teachers are automatically members of the PTFA.
Its stated aims are:
  • To support the education of the children via fundraising and other activities
  • To foster more extended relationships between staff, parents and others associated with the school
