How to get involved with the Blueprint for Parent Friendly Schools

Schools

Would you like to embed parental participation in your school? To begin using the Blueprint for Parent Friendly Schools you can:

• Book Parentkind training at great-value workshop or strategic masterclass level 
• Read some of the research and case studies from our evidence base 
• Try out some of our supporting resources 
• Follow Parentkind on social media to get news and updates on parental participation issues

We will soon be launching an interactive tool to support implementation of the Blueprint for Parent Friendly Schools. Follow us on social media to be the first to hear about the launch!

If you have any questions about Parentkind training and are based in England please contact schools@parentkind.org.uk.

Consultation and partnership

We want our Blueprint for Parent-Friendly Schools adopted nationally by policymakers, education agencies and partners and are working tirelessly to make this happen across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.  

We are therefore establishing a collective partnership network to inform our ongoing work on the Blueprint for Parent Friendly Schools. To find out more about our collective approach to positive change click here. 

If you are a school, local authority, group of schools or a children’s sector organisation and would like to be involved in the collective partnership network please contact schools@parentkind.org.uk.
