Spotlight: Effective family engagement

The school has a well-established and highly supportive family and community ethos, which is a fundamental part of its vision, and central to its work. To support this, the school collaborates effectively with a wide range of external providers. These partnerships help to build strong relationships with families and develop parents’ and carers’ understanding of a range of important topics such as internet safety, financial literacy, and effective parenting. In addition, the supportive role of the family engagement officer provides a valuable link between parents and carers and the school. Families attend school regularly to take part in useful workshops that support them with life skills and equip them to support their children’s learning. The school’s work in this area is a notable strength.
