Leading Parent Partnership Award

At Delamere we are always looking for ways to improve our practise and learn from others, so when we heard about the Leading Parent Partnership Award we thought it would be great to get involved.

The award is run by Award Place, part of Optimus Education Ltd and contains 9 objectives for us to achieve in order to demonstrate excellent work with our families. Our aim is to achieve the award by taking a fresh look at how we work with families and in doing so consider ways to improve.

The 9 objectives are:

1. The school demonstrates a commitment to work towards achieving the LPPA
2. The school makes and implements effective plans to achieve and maintain the LPPA
3. The school is a welcoming, communicative and friendly place for parents
4. The school promotes the awareness and participation of all groups of parents in supporting their children’s learning and developing their own learning. In addition, the school holds and actively promotes a programme of opportunities and events for joint parent and child participation
5. The school provides a good induction for all new parents
6. The school provides parents with relevant and user-friendly guidance and information to help them support their children’s learning
7. The school produces and implements parent-friendly policies to establish effective home–school links and improve children’s attendance, punctuality, progress and positive participation in school
8. The school provides good support for all parents as their children move through or leave the school
9. The school summarises its achievements against the LPPA Objectives and outlines its future plans

We would welcome any feedback you have about our work with families or any ideas you have for us going forward.
