What is the leading parent partnership award?
At our school, we are proud to announce our commitment to achieving the Leading Parent Partnership Award (LPPA). This prestigious award is designed to encourage and recognise schools that are dedicated to fostering strong partnerships with parents and guardians. The LPPA is rooted in the belief that effective collaboration between schools and families significantly enhances children's learning experiences and outcomes.
​
We recognise that parents are invaluable partners in the educational journey, and we strive to create an inclusive environment where their voices are heard and valued. Our dedicated team is working diligently on initiatives that promote communication, engagement, and collaboration with families, ensuring that everyone feels connected and supported.
​
By pursuing the LPPA, we aim to celebrate our achievements in parent partnerships and continuously improve our practices to create a vibrant, nurturing school community. We invite all parents to join us on this exciting journey towards excellence in parental involvement!
How do we achieve this?
At UCS, we are dedicated to fostering strong partnerships with parents, which is central to achieving the prestigious Leading Parent Partnership Award. This award represents our commitment to engaging families in the education journey of their children. We accomplish this through nine key objectives designed to promote effective communication, collaboration, and support.
​
Firstly, we ensure regular and transparent communication with parents, addressing their needs and encouraging feedback. We provide opportunities for parents to participate in school events, fostering community involvement. Our outreach initiatives aim to raise awareness of educational resources available to families. Additionally, we facilitate workshops that empower parents to enhance their children’s learning at home.
​
Furthermore, our partnerships with local organisations provide additional support services for families. We continuously evaluate our strategies through surveys and feedback to refine our approaches. By fulfilling these objectives, we strive to create an environment that champions parental engagement and enhances student success.
