Aurora believes a strong partnership between students, their parents and carers and the school is essential for good personal and educational development. Aurora schools achieve this by:

• Creating an ethos whereby parents and carers feel valued, respected and well supported
• Expecting parents and carers to attend and contribute to consultations about their child’s progress
• Encouraging parents and carers to attend and contribute to regular curriculum events throughout the year
• Ensuring that communication and support for students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities and their families, is of the highest quality
• Ensuring that welfare provision and support is of the highest standard
• Ensuring arrangements for students joining our schools either before or during the school year, enable them to settle in quickly and confidently
• Ensuring arrangements for students leaving our schools either before, during or at the end of the school year, enable them to transfer successfully
• Providing opportunities and encouraging parents and carers to contribute by giving honest and clear feedback to surveys, questionnaires and ‘Parent/Carer Voice’ meetings
• Ensuring that parents and carers are represented on the Local Academy Board (LAB) of each school
• Providing families with the knowledge and skills that they need to support their children effectively with their learning at home
• Providing opportunities for families to further develop their own skills to enable students to be happy, confident and healthy
