Leading Parent Partnership Award
At St Thomas’ (Halliwell) CE Primary School we recognise the importance of parental involvement in the life of our school and highly value this partnership. The LPPA is a recognised award and is externally validated. It provides a challenging framework that enables schools to strengthen their partnership with parents and carers. Achieving the LPPA is a developmental process which, through the involvement of parents aims to enhance children’s life chances as young people and adults.

In September 2025 the school was successful in achieving this award for the fourth time. As a school we value the support and contribution of our Parents and Carers in all aspects of their child’s school life, both within and beyond the classroom, and as such we saw that by investing time and commitment pursuing this award we would ensure that we continued to build upon these relationships. Our commitment to achieving the award provided us with an audit that showed our strengths in our partnership with parents and a way forward to develop ourselves as an inclusive learning community. We are delighted to have undergone the rigour of the process and to have achieved this prestigious award.
