Introduce your schoolFor parents
Bring the library to your child’s school.
Your child’s school can give the whole library to its pastoral team, free. This page is how to tell them.
If you work at a school, the page for schools is the one you want.
For parentsWhy it works best from you
The best introductions come from parents.
If a chapter here has been useful to you, other parents in your child’s year group are probably dealing with the same things. Schools listen to their own parents far more readily than they listen to us, so one sentence from you in an email to your head of year does more than any approach from us could.
What you are passing on costs the school nothing. The pastoral team reads the whole library free, and sends a chapter to a parent the way they would send anything else, as a link in an email they were already writing. There is nothing to buy, nothing to install, and nothing for a busy deputy head to administer.
You are welcome to write to them yourself, and to say we can be reached at hello@theparentbook.com. If you would rather we made the approach, leave us the name below and we will write one careful email. We will say a parent at the school suggested it, and we will not use your name unless you tell us we may.
Introduce your schoolTwo minutes, in your own words
Tell us who to write to.
Fill in what you know and leave the rest blank; a school name on its own is enough. We write one careful email to the right person, we do not name you unless you have said we may, and nothing further happens unless the school wants it to.
Thank you. Your introduction has arrived, and we will write back personally, usually within two working days. If we then speak to the school, we will explain plainly what the shelf does.
