Home Visit/In School Visit Programme

It is well recognised that a strong relationship between families and school provides the best possible support for every child. The Education Endowment Foundation is the UK’s leading education research organisation. Their most recent report on parent engagement suggests that effective parent engagement can lead to learning gains of 3 months over the course of a year. This makes effective parent engagement a key element of successfully supporting every child to thrive, our vision for every child in a Maritime school. 

We piloted additional home visits in three Maritime schools in September 2022. We received lots of positive feedback from teachers, parents and children and have been running hybrid home visits and in school visits at Featherby since then to strengthen the relationship between our school and families. 

At Featherby we run home visits for children in our nursery and reception classes and in-school visits for children in Years 1-6.
