Parent Partnership.
Working together for your child.
At St Richards CE Preschool we are passionate and dedicated to working together with the parents of the children who attend our setting, making them central to all that we do here. The EYFS term ‘Partnership with Parents’ is a means of recognising parents as the most important educators of their children and making them the focal source of information, alongside their children, to help us provide the best possible care and education for each and every child attending our setting.
Working together means that we look forward to sharing together your childs journey and milestones; big or small. By engaging with parents we aim to provide the highest standard of early education for each and every child. We recognise that without parents as partners, our role wouldn’t exist.
How do we ensure that we are actively working with parents ?
Building a positive relationship with parents underpinned by trust is the first and most important step to engaging parents and ensuring they are actively involved in the decision making aspect of their child’s development.
Here at St Richards CE Preschool, we empower parents from the very beginning to make choices and inform us of key information regarding the care for their child.
We use various communication tools to ensure that every parent/carer receives detailed information about their child’s day. We hold regular events for parents to engage with their children in our environment and to bond with our staff.
We use Famly Technology which provides us with an innovative, exciting and inspirational ‘online journal’ which we use to record all the learning and fun of your child’s early years education journey with us. Sharing the children’s special moments at Preschool in a way that is accessible to parents/carers wherever they may be.
Text, images and videos are securely uploaded via PC, tablet or mobile app – anywhere there’s an online connection. Every entry helps to create a complete story of each child’s time at with us at Preschool. To have parents able to view and comment on these ‘special moments’ and to be able to share with the setting their own stories of their child’s life outside Preschool will have a lasting, and positive, effect on our partnership journey together.
