Family and Community Support
Our primary provision is being enhanced by ensuring that positive home-school relationships are established at the earliest opportunity. The education of a child is more effective where there is alignment between parenting and schooling and we seek to ensure that families are well supported to carry out their essential part in this journey.
Our early family support and education provision are central to this work - equipping parents and carers with the skills and knowledge they need to support their child's education and personal development. We will strengthen this, ensuring that all academies have a consistent core as well as a locally tailored, needs-driven offer which enables the home-school relationships to flourish.
All of our Primary Academies deliver Family Links Nurturing Groups and hold regular coffee mornings for parents and carers to get to know the school team and meet other agencies who work in the community. If you are a partner agency who would like to make links with your local 蚂蚁福利导航 Primary Academy, get in touch with us by contacting c.jackson@outwood.com.
