Parent Association

We look forward to your involvement in our many wonderful PA projects planned for your child throughout the year. PA's success depends on parent involvement.

Mission Statement

The Uppsala International School Parents Association (UISPA) supports the development of the unity among parents, faculty, administration, students, and staff by cooperating to enrich the lives of the students and guide parents towards a better understanding of the aims, policies and philosophy of UIS. The achievement of this mission relies upon parent cooperation and volunteerism.

How can you get involved?

Simply by sending your child to UIS you have become a member of the Parents Association (PA). We look forward to your involvement in our many wonderful PA projects planned for your child throughout the year.

PA's success depends on parent involvement. Being a PA volunteer is the first step toward making new friends and learning about new cultures. These opportunities offer parents a chance to participate in an area of interest or expertise.

Parent Partnership

Close communication is at the core of our partnership approach. Keeping guardians in the loop regarding their child's progress is an essential part of what we do. UIS has an "open door" policy which ensures parents can speak with us at any stage, we keep those all-important channels of communication wide open. 

This provides opportunities for parents to engage with their child’s learning and develop a better understanding of engagement strategies and their child’s learning needs.

Communication with Parents

Parents and carers play a crucial role in the progress and achievements of UIS students. As such, we encourage parents and carers to engage with the school as much as possible.

The first point of contact for all parents and carers is their child's personal tutors. The UIS holds Parents' Evenings at the end of each Term. The weekly newsletter will also inform families of important notifications and events.
