Benefits of school membership
School membership enables you to share any of our specialist guides with your parents free of charge. It includes permission to share them with parents, carers and other interested parties connected to your school in any way you find useful – including via your website, intranet site, google drive and through email, newsletters or social media. We personalise each guide with your school logo on the cover page to demonstrate the licence has been paid and free sharing is approved.
You’ll also get access to a unique members’ area with our yearly calendar of upcoming events (displayed month by month), our most popular online articles and a referral directory of reliable websites for more resources.

What schools say about us:
-
The resources are fantastic - accessible and very much in the style students and parents are familiar with. The little touches, such as the glossary boxes and simple flow charts, make them very easy-to-navigate, which delivers a great deal of information without being overwhelming, even for parents who know very little about the UK education system.​
​
-
We've had so many positive responses from our parents this year - we thought you might like to know. Thank you for everything you're doing to help support parents.​

The Parents' Guide to:
We provide resources for parents about choices teenagers face Post 16 and Post 18, as well as advice on teenage health and wellbeing. We specialize on parents of Years 10-13 as it’s a time when teenagers face many important decisions and parents play a pivotal role in guiding them. Our specialist guides have all the information parents need in one place, written in a style that’s easy to read and include links to reliable sources so they can find out more. We are not sponsored, so our advice is unbiased. We work with 1,100 schools and reach over 600,000 parents in England and Wales.
