Parental Engagement
At Westwood, we have a long and successful history of providing support for our families and we are collating an exciting range of training and pupil/parent experiences just for you. We know when supporting your child, we are better together!
We have had our fabulous parents join us for our popular 'Family Learning' opportunities including on site Junior maths, Foundation phase outdoor learning, Lego Workshop, Family First Aid, Year 1 parents for 'Come and Cook.' We have teamed up with Groundworks for Numbers in Nature, Cooking on a Budget and Wellies in the Woods. We also have Air Fryer Cooking and Family Wellbeing coming up with them soon. We have STAND coming it to to do a Sensory Reading Workshop for our Early Years families so keep a look out for this upcoming event.
Many parents have been involved in EPEC (Empowering Parents, Empowering Communities) with Mrs Thomas, where parents can learn practical skills through understanding children’s feelings, effective parent-child communication and build better, more resilient family relationships.

We will always signpost parents to opportunities via our social media or emails so always check this out too! We will be looking to offer more opportunities during school time and after school too – just let us know what you need and we will do the rest!! Keep an eye on those emails- don't miss out!
We have our hugely successful community event Westwood Stay and Play with Mrs Quirk and Mrs Thomas. We have our our own Facebook page so keep an eye on this for upcoming sessions.
