We are a Parentkind School
We are delighted to share that Aylesham Primary School has been awarded the Parentkind Silver Award for our commitment to building strong, positive, and meaningful partnerships with our families.
This recognition reflects the hard work of our staff, the enthusiasm of our parents and carers, and the vibrant sense of community that makes Aylesham Primary such a special place.
What the Award Means
The Parentkind Silver Award celebrates schools that place parents at the heart of their children’s learning. It recognises how we:
- Create a welcoming school ethos that helps every family feel they belong.
- Communicate clearly and openly with parents.
- Support learning that extends beyond the classroom.
- Encourage parents to be actively involved in school life.
- Build strong links within our wider community.
At Aylesham Primary School our parents feel connected, welcomed, and supported, a true reflection of our community values.
Highlights from the ParentKind Silver Award Report
A welcoming, community-centred school
We are commited to creating a strong sense of belonging. Events such as open days, positive phone calls home, and our supportive approach help families feel part of their child’s learning journey.
Strong communication with families
We keep parents informed through in-person contact, events, and varied communication channels.
Supporting learning beyond the classroom
By sharing classroom activities and offering engaging home-learning opportunities, we help parents continue conversations about learning at home.
Parent involvement in school life
From volunteering on trips to supporting reading in class, we are thrilled that so many parents want to be involved.
Connected to our community
Our partnerships, including our work with the food bank, demonstrate our commitment to supporting families beyond the school gates.
