Department for Education written question – answered at on 25 April 2016.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what future plans she has for the role of parents in the running of their children's school.
There is a long standing tradition of parents’ involvement in the running of their child’s school, including a valuable role in governance, and we want that to continue. Academy boards will always be free to appoint parents for their skills and knowledge to govern in the best interests of all pupils. Academies will be required to engage with all parents to listen to their views and feedback particularly on key decisions about the school.
