Working together with our parents
We are a friendly and welcoming school and love to involve our parents in their children’s learning and the life of our school as much as possible. We aim to establish a mutually supportive and respectful relationship with all our parents where trust and respect is at the heart of all we do. We like to keep parents informed and involved in a positive way, through working in partnership together in many ways in order to help every pupil achieve their full potential socially, emotionally and academically.
The research
All the research tells us that engaging parents in their children’s learning leads to improved social skills, behaviour and academic progress for the children in school. The Education Endowment Foundation says that children can make 3 months or more progress if their parents are involved in their learning over the course of just one year! This research, alongside all the positive benefits we see when parents become more involved in their children’s learning, has led us to think of new ways that we can work together with our parents to make this partnership even stronger.
