Family & School Together

At Parkfields we are committed to listening and responding to the views and opinions of our parents as well as offering opportunities to provide information and guidance on relevant topics. We hold regular events across the year which enable families to come into the school for different reasons - SEND Coffee & Cake, parent consultations, celebration events and information events.

Family Forum

Family Forum meetings usually take place every half term. The Family Forum is a platform for parents to express their suggestions and ideas for improvements at the school. We are committed to working closely with parents to ensure they are completely satisfied with their child’s education and feel that their views and opinions are listened to and acted upon.

The aim of the forum is to obtain parents views, develop a strong partnership and to promote a collaborative educational atmosphere between children and home life and school.

Meetings dates this year are as follows - all 4.30pm start:

  • Autumn 1 - tbc
  • Autumn 2 - tbc
