"87% of students who earned A’s or B’s reported that their parents were involved in their homework. More than 75% of these parents also talked to their child about their school lives. 50% of students with grades lower than C reported that their parents were not involved with their schooling”

School Workforce Remodelling

"Remodelling is about giving teachers more time, extra support and renewed leadership. This is essential if they are to go on improving standards in schools.  By restructuring the teaching profession and reforming the school workforce, we can reduce teacher workload, raise standards, increase job satisfaction and improve the status of the profession."
