You’ve sent the email. You’ve shared the booking link. You’ve reminded parents. So why are some families still not attending parents' evenings? It’s usually not a lack of interest. It’s a lack of clear, well-timed communication. When messages are buried in busy inboxes (or unclear on what to do next), even engaged parents can miss them. If you’ve got a parents' evening coming up, here are 3 simple ways to improve bookings without adding more admin: ✅ Use the right channel for the right job ✅ Get your timing right ✅ Make it easy to act The schools seeing the best attendance aren’t sending more messages. They’re sending clearer, better-timed ones. We’ve put together ready-to-use email and SMS templates to make this easier (and save hours of admin). Read more: https://lnkd.in/d3kCcHHe

Working at Tes Magazine gives you a unique perspective on schools. Emma Seith, Senior Writer covering international schools, shares how working at Tes has reshaped how she sees schools. After years of reporting across very different education systems, one thing has become increasingly clear: while buildings and resources matter, it’s the quality of teaching that ultimately defines a school. Great teachers shape not just outcomes, but the experiences and opportunities students carry with them long after they leave the classroom.

It’s about making sure stories are accurate, clear, timely and focused on the issues educators genuinely care about. From the SEND crisis and Ofsted reform to teacher maternity pay, the team works to uncover the angles others miss, hold decision-makers to account and help schools understand what policy changes actually mean in practice. Get to know the people behind the reporting and the work that goes into keeping the education sector informed. 👉🔗https://lnkd.in/dUw6z2md #EducationNews #TesMagazine #ThoughtLeadership

🤝 Tes: Trusts Networking Evening 2026 Thank you to all who joined us in Westminster yesterday for an inspiring evening. Bridget Phillipson spoke about the importance of collaboration across the sector to improve education and outcomes for children and young people. She highlighted the ambition behind the government’s SEND reforms, alongside the Schools White Paper and SEND consultation, and reflected on the challenging financial environment facing leaders and teachers. The evening also created space for sector leaders to connect and share insights on key issues, including inclusion, the new Ofsted framework and the need for the system to be properly funded, while recognising the commitment and dedication of those working across education. If you missed this session, we’ll be at many events throughout the year and would love to see you there. Keep an eye on our page for updates! #TesTrustEvent2026
