It's Your Child's Life

Working with parents to support children’s learning

  'It’s Your Child's Life' is a parental engagement programme which helps parents to help their children thrive in school. By giving parents a real insight into what their child is learning and how they are being taught, parents become the real partners in their child’s learning journey and become actively involved in their education.

  Through intensive support, parents are given guidance, advice, tips and tools they need to help their children strive for and achieve excellence. With a sound knowledge and understanding of EYFS and Key Stage 1 curriculum, our leaders have successfully delivered over 100 programmes in 40 schools across  working with over 750 families.

The Programme

'It's Your Child's Life' promotes parental engagement and empowers parents to become real partners in their child’s education. By providing parents with the confidence and tools they need, they can help their children develop skills associated with school readiness. This in turn impacts positively on their child’s ability to demonstrate a good level of development in many different areas making school a happy, positive and successful experience for both children and parents alike. The programme can be delivered to up to 10 parents in 6 or 12 weeks depending on the needs of the parents and schools.

What Headteachers and SLT Say

“I was stopped by parents who wanted to share how much they have enjoyed the course. They were full of praise as to how much it has helped them help their children and how much it has inspired them. This is making such a difference to our pupils and families and is worth every penny.”
