# Parent Network

## The Parent Voice is a forum to allow parents to participate in the process of school improvement by sharing their expertise, experiences and observations.

It runs in the following way:

- The topic of each meeting will be given in advance.
- Parents will need to register to attend in advance (we will have a maximum group size of 25 parents).
- Whilst senior school staff will be present, conversation will be led by parents Meetings will give parents an informal and genuine opportunity for open discussion.
- Meetings will give the school effective and timely feedback to inform their future planning.
- We will encourage discussion on issues which relate to how we can work together to further improve our offer to students and families.
- It will not be a forum to discuss individual students or members of staff, or concerns relating to a specific incident.

We would very much welcome a range of parents joining and aim to make the sessions informal and inclusive.

If you can spare the time, and would like to hear more please Email: <head@ushschool.org> to express your interest, with any particular general school topics you would like to discuss.

**Next Meeting Dates:**

**Wednesday 16th December 2026**

**Wednesday 3rd February 2027**

**Wednesday 12th May 2027**
