For professionals.

Parents play an essential role in shaping a child’s education and wellbeing, making them invaluable partners in the journey to create thriving school communities. A child’s success is not solely determined by what happens in the classroom; it is equally influenced by the support and engagement they receive at home. Schools that actively involve parents in their strategies benefit from stronger relationships, improved student outcomes, and a more cohesive sense of community.

​

Becoming a parent-inclusive school means more than acknowledging the importance of families—it’s about embedding practices that make parents feel valued, involved, and empowered to contribute. Schools that embrace this approach often see increased engagement, better communication, and higher levels of trust between educators and families. From improving parental participation in decision-making to enhancing their involvement in school activities, the journey toward inclusivity requires thoughtful strategies that address the diverse needs of families.

​

At &Parents, we support professionals in embedding parent-focused practices into their schools and organisations. We provide expert training and practical guidance to equip educators with the skills needed to foster strong parent-school partnerships. Our services include workshops, bespoke consultancy, and strategic advice designed to help schools build effective systems for engaging with families.

​

Our work is informed by robust research and aligned with national and international policies on education and parental involvement. By staying at the forefront of these developments, we ensure the strategies we recommend are evidence-based and tailored to the unique challenges schools face today.

​

Partnering with parents is not only an added benefit—it’s a vital step toward creating inclusive, supportive environments where all students can thrive. Together, we can bridge the oft-cited gap between home and school, driving meaningful change and fostering a brighter future for every child.
