Respect local customs, traditions, and values while collaborating to identify needs and solutions. I think this will allow parents to be open and transparent about issues which could include more parent/carers to be involved if they are heard. Giving them a platform to have a say what happens within community

Their insights and involvement can significantly impact the child's success. Working towards shared goals and objectives that make the child's development a priority.

I think its important to have a strong social media presence as parent/carer will go on social media to upload good/bad experiences.

Fairs/ a lot of free events

Free courses - some schools provide after school curriculum for children, open it to parents for a chance to learn something new?
