The Parent Council at the Tallinn European School is a non-profit, volunteer-led association consisting of class parent representatives whose students attending the school. Its primary purpose is to support our TES community by facilitating communication and cooperation between parents (legal guardians), teachers and the school administration, to ensure the best academic and developing conditions for the students.

The parents are a vital part of the TES community and the Parent Council values the close collaboration with all of them. The Parent Council believes that the parents are invaluable partners in the success of the students. The TES families are also actively involved in many aspects of school life, and the Parent Council is grateful to the numerous parent volunteers supporting and creating such a diverse community of families at TES.
