The Schools & Academies Show has partnered with VenturEd Solutions, to provide an exclusive lunch briefing on Tuesday 11th November 2025.

In this lunch briefing, we’re looking forward to connecting senior leaders from across Wales, to share and discuss successful parental engagement strategies, that help increase pupil attendance, attainment and whole school community.

85% of parents reportedly want to play a more active role in their child’s education: our aim is to facilitate that connection, and consequently improve pupil attendance, behaviour, and achievements. 

From Autumn, we are excited to be supporting Welsh schools with translated school communications products, to help drive improvements in parental engagement, a challenge schools have been struggling with nationwide.
