Parents and carers! Please take part in the launch of our latest parent/carer survey which seeks your views and priorities for Scottish education to inform Connect’s Parents’ Charter.
The Charter will contain a series of ‘asks’ from parents and carers as we go into the 2026 Scottish Parliamentary election and will contribute to Connect’s policy work. We're excited to deliver the Charter - a first for Connect and a first for parents, carers and Scottish education!
Your participation in the survey will shape the content of the Charter - it’s very much a work in progress based on our surveys, focus groups and feedback from parents, carers and parent groups over the last few years.
Gavin Yates, Executive Director of Connect, said:
'Our ethos has always been about trying to accurately reflect your experiences, both positive and negative and express that as effectively as we can to drive change. It is in that spirit that we have decide to build a Parents’ Charter to ensure your voice is heard and those in power listen and act.'
