The Parent Academy brings together a series of seminars and workshops into a curriculum which empowers parents to support their child's learning journey from DUCKS to Senior School and beyond.

The Parent Academy was launched by Head of College Garry Russell at the Welcome Back Coffee Morning on September 3 under the theme of ‘Unlocking Learning Together.’
