This episode discusses effective parent/carer engagement work for schools, offering advice and ideas.

We discuss a parental engagement timeline (when this work should begin and how it can be sustained), handling conflict with parents, how to engage with “hard-to-reach” parents, community out-reach, and protecting staff workload.

We discuss best practice for your school website and how parental engagement has changed during the pandemic, including the future of parents’ evenings (online and face-to-face).

We discuss the importance of positive communication and how this can be done effectively, including proactive communication plans and online parental coaching.
