The Tell Them From Me (TTFM) Partners in Learning Parent Survey helps to clarify and strengthen the important relationship between parent and school. Insights into parent and staff communication, activities and practices at home, and parent voice on school’s support of learning and behaviour all build an accurate and timely picture that schools can use for practical improvements.

Build Successful Relations

The Partners in Learning Parent Survey is based primarily on Joyce Epstein’s framework for fostering positive relations between the school and the community. Successful schools foster greater communication with parents, encourage parental involvement in their child’s schoolwork, and enlist parents to volunteer at the school and participate in school governance. The survey also provides feedback to schools about the extent to which parents feel the school supports learning and positive behaviour and promotes a safe and inclusive environment.
