Leading Parent Partnership Award
Statement of Commitment
Dear Parents and Carers,
As part of the ongoing development of our parent engagement strategy, we are delighted to have been awarded the Leading Parent Partnership Award (LPPA). The award supports us as a school in developing the vital links that exist between us as a school and you, the parents and carers of our pupil.
Good and effective partnerships between a school and the parents and carers of its pupils is vital in improving the achievement of children and that is what we are committed to achieving at Great Arley.
We would always welcome your feedback on anything we do at school in order to improve your experience as a parent or carer with a pupil at Great Arley. We are hopeful that our continuing journey after achieving the LPPA will help us make that experience the best we can for you, with the ultimate aim of giving our pupils the very best opportunities in their education and futures.
