The work of Parent Support Partners<br />

Parent Support Partners (PSP) are the outcome of<br />

a government initiative linked to the <strong>Extended</strong><br />

Schools Service. They compliment existing services<br />

aimed at supporting and enhancing life chances for<br />

children and young people. PSP’s come from a variety<br />

of professional backgrounds and have a wide range of<br />

experience working with parents, carers, families,<br />

children and young people.<br />

The role of a PSP is to work with parents and schools<br />

to identify and address individual barriers by providing<br />

support, advice and guidance and also sharing information<br />

about external services. PSP’s work towards<br />

enabling children to reach their full potential<br />

with the collaboration of parents, carers and families.<br />
