““I went with my son to a Meet the Parents event at his primary school when he was in Year 6. We were stuck choosing between two schools and we came out of the evening with a clear decision that we haven’t regretted. We were able to ask the kids and parents informal questions that gave us a better idea of the school environment and the day-to-life of the school.””

““Meet the Parents is a fantastic, innovative and incredibly simple idea and it has massively benefited our daughter and our whole family. Like many families in our neighbourhood private schools were very much on our radar, especially my husband’s, and by attending Meet the Parents evenings along with school open evenings we were convinced that Parliament Hill was the right choice for our daughter.””
From a Meet the Parents event at Gospel Oak school
““Like all parents looking for secondary schools, we started looking at our options with some excitement and some trepidation. Thanks to the Meet the Parents sessions we have now chosen the school we would like our son to attend. Amazingly, it was the school that was the top of our ‘scrap heap’ last year.””
Pete, Year 6 Parent
““After attending open evenings and official events, I wasn’t sure what to expect from Meet the Parents. Not only were the children all excellent ambassadors for teaching at the schools, but they were able to give us insights into what it feels like to be pupils there. The parents were also helpful and were refreshingly open about aspects of their schools which they felt needed to improve.””
