Originally published in 1988, this book discusses the gradual move
from the separation of home and school to an increasing acceptance
of the central role of parents as partners in their children's
education. The book looks at the progress made towards real
partnership with parents. An eminently practical account of the
advantages of working with parents and the ways in which this can
be achieved, it will be of special value to student teachers and
practicing teachers, and to parents interested and involved in
their children's education. The authors review national trends and
developments since the issue was first seriously raised by the
Plowden Report in 1967. Then focusing on one urban primary school
(Redlands Primary School, Reading), they describe the changes which
have taken place over a seven-year period, from the perspective of
teachers, parents, and children. The book includes a personal
account by Angela Redfern (formerly Deputy Head at Redlands) of
what it has been like to be a teacher during this period of change,
and telling comments from both parents and children on all aspects
of involvement in school. Partnership with parents emerges as a
course of action which reaps benefits for all concerned, and the
authors stress that the developments taking place in schools like
Redland are important for all schools, irrespective of their social
class or ethnic composition.
