Ensuring strong links with families

Spotlight

Leaders and staff develop very positive links with families. They provide valuable opportunities for parents or carers to visit the school, for example during ‘book look’ days, where parents can look at their child’s work or by attending regular class assemblies. Leaders organise purposeful transition events for parents new to the school, these enable most pupils to have a successful start to school life. They communicate regularly with home and ensure that they respond swiftly and purposefully to any concerns or suggestions for improvement. For example, the views of parents and carers have helped inform the school’s approach to diversity and anti-racism.
