Parent Support

This page contains information and links to several local initiatives in and around the Wolverhampton area that parents and families can access to gain further support, if they are experiencing difficulty.

The Leading Parent Partnership Award (LPPA) is a national quality standard that recognises schools for their commitment to working closely with families. It provides a framework for us to enhance the way we communicate, share information, and support your child’s learning journey.

Why it Matters

Stronger Communication: Ensuring you always feel informed and heard.
Home Learning: Providing better tools to support your child's studies.
Welcoming Environment: Making school a place where every parent feels involved.
Child Success: Proven research shows parent engagement boosts student achievement.

Our Commitment

We are currently working towards this award to ensure our school is the best it can be for our students and their families. This initiative is being led by Miss Manby and Mrs McCallion, who are dedicated to strengthening our school community.

We value your feedback and look forward to building an even stronger partnership together.

Join Us Soon

Keep an eye out for an invite to a parent coffee morning in the near future! This will be a great opportunity to discuss our progress and share your ideas.

The Wellbeing Award

Our Commitment to Wellbeing

At Stowlawn, our vision is to create an environment where every individual can Achieve, Belong, and Thrive. We believe that academic success and personal growth are only possible when they are built on a foundation of emotional and physical wellbeing.

To formalise this commitment, we are proud to be working towards the Wellbeing Award for Schools (WAS). This national accreditation validates the work we do to support the mental health of our pupils, staff, and the wider community.

Values in Action

Our approach to wellbeing is not a "standalone" project; it is woven into the very fabric of our school values:

Ready: By prioritising mental health, we ensure our students are emotionally regulated and mentally prepared for the challenges of the classroom.
Respectful: We foster a culture where we respect our own minds and the feelings of others, creating a kind and inclusive atmosphere.
Safe: We provide a secure space where students feel safe to take risks in their learning and safe to speak out when they need support.

Supporting Our Staff

A vital part of the Wellbeing Award is its focus on Staff Wellbeing. We recognise that for our pupils to thrive, they need to be supported by a team that is also healthy, motivated, and cared for. The award helps us ensure that our staff have the right training, resources, and work-life balance to be at their best. By investing in our team’s mental health, we ensure they are fully ready and equipped to provide the highest level of care for your children.

A Whole-School Approach

Education is about more than just results; it is about the "whole child." Through the Wellbeing Award, we are refining our systems to identify needs early and ensure that every student feels a deep sense of belonging. When a child feels safe, respected, and supported, they don’t just attend school—they thrive.

We are committed to working alongside pupils, parents/carers and staff to make Stowlawn Primary School a place where mental health is everyone’s responsibility. Together, we hope to build a resilient community ready for the future.

A range of different and connected factors influence our health and wellbeing:

We want everyone in the City of Wolverhampton to live longer and have a good quality of life.

To achieve this, we are supporting people to make healthy life choices and working with our partners to focus on improvements to the wider factors that impact on peoples' lives, such as education, access to jobs and skills, housing, our environment, and feeling safe and involved in our local community.
