COVER STORY

摘要

Parental involvement in their children's education is hugely important, and most schools are keen to get parents more engaged. But differences of opinion can present challenges - and sometimes relationships between parents and schools break down altogether. There may be disapproval, or misunderstanding, over lesson content. In Birmingham recently there have been daily demonstrations outside primary schools (Busby, 2019) and hundreds of children withdrawn for a day (Parveen, 2019) in protest at lessons that included LGBT issues.
