Effective partnership with parents and carers
The school’s support for parents is exceptional and meets their wide- ranging needs very well. All school staff establish regular communication with parents, which builds high levels of trust and mutual respect. The school arranges comprehensive, tailored support programmes for parents, for example, they create networks for those who experience similar challenges and facilitate social activities to help families that are new to the country to socialise and integrate successfully. There are regular sessions for parents to learn new skills, such as cookery lessons and sessions which support parents to improve their child’s learning. The school’s support fosters community cohesion and creates a highly successful partnership approach to supporting pupils’ learning and emotional needs.
