PSA roles and vacancies

Every couple of years the leaders of the PSA step down and new members are elected to be the The Chair, The Treasurer, and the Secretary. As of July 2022 our Treasurer and Secretary are stepping down.  Please see below the duties/responsibilities of each role. We currently do not have a Chair. We can run as a PSA without one as long as we have The Secretary and The Treasurer.  If you would be interested in any of the roles below then please do not hesitate to get in touch with the PSA on psa@pembury.kent.sch.uk to have a chat about it, and catch up with Caro and Jess that are the current Secretary and Treasurer respectively.

Or if you fancy being a Class Rep then that is a great way of helping too!
