At Verita, we believe a school is at its best when leadership and families walk side-by-side. The Parent Advisory Board Committee (ABC) serves as a “critical friend” to our school—a dedicated group of parent who ensure Verita stays true to its mission while constantly evolving to meet the needs of our diverse community.
Our Impact: Strategic Initiatives & Focus Areas
We don’t just advise; we help shape the daily experience and long-term future of our students. Through the Advisory Board Committee (ABC), we leverage parent expertise to drive progress in these key areas:
Curriculum / Methods Infographic: Emphasising a structured curriculum, smooth transitions to high school, and a comprehensive overview of student achievements.
Teacher Recruitment & Evaluation: Committing to transparency in student assessments and hiring practices.
Facilities & Traffic Management: Enhancing school facilities and promoting safety initiatives like Traffic Week.
Community Events: Promote engagement through various activities, including seasonal bazaars, family gatherings, sports, morning chats and volunteering opportunities.
New & Old Families Integration: Fostering family connections through welcoming initiatives, cultural celebrations, and community engagement activities.
Real-Life Career Orientation: Organising guest speakers and institution visits to provide students with real-world insights.
Multi-Level Communication: Enhancing parent engagement through regular updates and informal networks.

Parents: Your Voice Matters
As Verita continues to grow, our shared values and principles must remain at the core of everything we do. That’s why parental involvement is a cornerstone of our future strategy.
By participating in our two parent-led committees—Academics & Wellbeing and Extracurricular & Community—families have more opportunities than ever to contribute meaningfully to the Verita journey.
The Advisory Board ensures these voices are heard, valued, and reflected in the decisions that shape our school’s future.
Together, we are building a school that listens, evolves, and stands firmly in its purpose.
Let’s continue to make Verita not just a place of learning, but a thriving community where every voice counts.
