5.0 out of 5 stars A Really Good Read, 19 Jun 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Involving Parents in their Children's Learning (Paperback)
I was really impressed by this book.

It was extremely easy to read, with the chapters broken down into nice small chunks. I'm not that much of a reader but I found this book really user-friendly. You get a real feel for the Pen Green Centres positive attitude towards the parents, which the majority feel let down by the education system.
I found the information in the book not only practical but encouraging too (full of lots of tried and tested ideas from the Pen Green Team).

I've used this book so much for much for my university work. I would seriously recommend it to anyone who has an essay about partnership with parents.
I would also recommend this book to anyone who works with children in schools or nurseries. It left me wanting to engage more with the parents I work with in my school.

Just a really good read about working with and engaging parents.

3.0 out of 5 stars All you ever needed to know about the Pen Green Centre!, 22 April 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Involving Parents in their Children's Learning (Paperback)
This book is a comprehensive look at how the Pen Green Centre in Corby, Northants, works with and includes parents as partners and stakeholders. With chapters such as "Hard to reach parents" and "Fathers are parents too." This book is an invaluable to not only students' research but practitioners and management of child care centres too. An excellent staff training tool, this book shows how the ethos of the Corby centre has shaped and moulded the centre into the success it is today
