“What parents do with their children at home is much more significant than any other factor open to educational influence” (Desforges and Abouchaar, 2003).
This is also our firm belief.
So, we remove the barriers for parents to help their children learn.
Our own research also shows that parents want to know what their children are learning and why.
But, to get parents involved in their children’s learning and to support them at a granular level has traditionally been hard to do at scale. It also has to be part of a whole school approach, not just an add-on.
So, we developed the Parent Portal.
It’s designed to help you:
- Keep parents in the loop with what their child is learning anytime, anywhere. They can access the system on a mobile, desktop or tablet. And view multiple children on one account if they need to.
- Give parents information in an easily-digestible format and share with them their child’s learning objectives, evidence in portfolios, homework, termly or end of year reports.
- Remove language barriers. At a click of a button translate the entire platform and all support pages into 100 languages.
- To make all information even more accessible, parents can also choose to have it read aloud.
- Give parents more confidence to help their child learn. A school can share each child’s objective individually with parents and map this to specific help articles. These articles are written by qualified teachers and give parents the how and why, with helpful teacher tips and ideas for activities with their child. Share a child’s work with parents in real-time, not just at parents evening.
Enable homework, share evidence in a Portfolio and share your termly or end of year Pupil Reports with parents.
Get full visibility and ownership of the parent portal. Learning Ladders is connected to a school’s MIS system, easily pulling parent data into the system. Schools have control to invite or remove parents and see when parents last logged in.
Easy and effective way to engage parents through our responsive and thorough support.
