Wirral Parent Partnership Service
Wirral Parent Partnership is an impartial information, support and advice service for parents/carers of children with special educational needs and/or disabilities and also for professionals working to support those needs.
Through a variety of means Wirral Parent Partnership Service works closely with parents/carers, schools, the Local Authority, local support services and voluntary organisations to increase parental understanding of special educational needs to enable parents/carers to become more involved in their children's educational development.
Parent Partnership Services work to a set of exemplifications set out by the Government to build on parents’ confidence in the impartiality of the advice and information they receive from the service. To view the current exemplifications go to: http://www.parentpartnership.org.uk/pdf/PPSExemplifications2010pdf.pdf. Wirral Parent Partnership is proud to have achieved Best Practice status.

NEWS
Ofsted has launched Parent View, a new online questionnaire that will allow
parents and carers to give their views on their child's school at any time of
the year. Covering over 22,000 schools across England, the 12-question survey
will help other parents as they make important choices about their child's
education and provide Ofsted with information about schools that will help
inform priorities for inspection.
Want to take a look?
You can access the site at http://parentview.ofsted.gov.uk/ after which
you'll be able to search for results for schools or if you have children
attending a school, register to complete a questionnaire.
The questions have been carefully chosen to cover those issues that parents
have told Ofsted are the most important to them. They are also designed to
provide Ofsted with the information to support decisions about inspection and
will give headteachers a direct route into gathering the views of their
parent group.
Launching Parent View, Baroness Sally Morgan, Ofsted Chair said:
"Parent View will give mums and dads a voice and will give Ofsted important
feedback about their children's schools"
We hope you find the new 'Parent View' service useful, if you'd like to tell
us what you think of the new service, please use the contact us page
