Engaging Parents in their Children's Learning

British Market Research Bureau   |   July 2008

The GTC survey of teachers (2007) focused on teacher's views on and experiences of pupil achievement. It included questions about teacher beliefs and experiences of working with parents/carers to support children's achievement.

In order to respond to the (then) emerging findings from the survey, and to set those teacher views alongside the beliefs and experiences of parents, the GTC commissioned BMRB to conduct a brief follow-up qualitative project with parents. This project aimed to further understand parents' views on:

  • how to best support their children's learning
  • how they want to work with teachers and schools in doing so
  • what they perceive the barriers are to this effort.
