Leading Parent Partner Award

About the Leading Parent Partnership Award


Joseph Cash Primary School are aiming to achieve the Leading Parent Partnership Award (LPPA). LPPA is an exciting national award that will help us to improve our strategies to involve parents and carers more fully in every child’s learning experience.

The Leading Parent Partnership Award gives schools a coherent framework to deliver effective parental engagement from early years to post-16.

Through this award, schools can meet several longer-term success criteria, such as improved pupil progress, punctuality, attendance and behaviour and increased parental involvement in school life.

Using the evidence portfolio, staff can easily demonstrate, to Ofsted Inspectors and other stakeholders, that the school has an outstanding and sustainable programme for parental engagement.

The award also supports;


• Transition – to support parents as their children transition through or between schools.
• Participation – to include all groups of parents in supporting their children's learning and developing their own learning.
• Communication – to take steps to ensure that the school is a welcoming, communicative and friendly place for parents.
• Guidance – to provide clear and accessible guidance to help parents support their children's learning and development.
• Induction – to provide clear guidance on the responsibilities of parents, school and pupils, and share this information with parents as a key part of the induction process.
• Home–school links – to produce parent-friendly policies to establish effective home–school links.


The objectives covered are:


• Objective 1 - The school demonstrates a commitment to work towards achieving the LPPA.
• Objective 2 - The school makes and implements effective plans to achieve and maintain the LPPA.
• Objective 3 - The school is a welcoming, communicative and friendly place for parents.
• Objective 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.
• Objective 5 - The school provides a good induction for all new parents.
• Objective 6 - The school provides parents with relevant and user-friendly guidance and information to help them support their children’s learning.
• Objective 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.
• Objective 8 - The school provides good support for all parents as their children move through or leave the school.
• Objective 9 - The school summarises its achievements against the LPPA Objectives and outlines its future plans.

With your continued support we hope to achieve this award. You can find more information about the award at https://www.awardplace.co.uk/
