When parents get involved with their child's school, whether from chatting to their child's teacher to volunteering for the PTA, it can boost attendance, improve behaviour and elevate academic success - proving that when parents engage, students thrive. Join Tom Rogers and a brilliant panel of guests as they discuss how and why parental engagement in schools matters - what difference does it really make?
Guests are; Pat Sowa ( Educational coach and trustee at Parentkind), Sian Lewis (Head of parental engagement at Parentkind) and Caroline Hayward (PTA community team at Parentkind).
Parentkind are a national charity representing parent views and voice and championing parental participation in education and school life. By fostering strong school-parent partnerships, we can boost student attendance, improve behaviour, and enhance academic performance.
