Who are the Parent Council?

Currently we are a group of around 20 parents, two local councillors, community members and various members of the Mackie Academy teaching staff.

Mackie Academy’s Head Teacher, Louise Moir, is present at all meetings along with members of the teaching staff as and when they are required.

We appoint a new chairperson and deputy chairperson as required by the constitution of the Parent Council that can be found here.

Chair and Vice Chair of the Parent Council 2025-26

Mandy Tulloch, Chair

I am currently Chair of our Parent Council. This is my second year in the role but I have been involved with the parent council since my first child started at Mackie 8 years ago. Joining a secondary school is a big learning curve for parents as well as children, so being part of the parent council helped me understand more about what goes on in a large school. Staff also work so hard for our children that I felt that lending my support to our school community was the least I could do. This year I'm looking forward to working with staff and parents on issues ranging from recognising achievement to increasing community involvement. During the day, I'm a freelance outdoor learning specialist, never happier than when outside, exploring in nature with a gang of children!

Jacqui Hutchison, Vice Chair
