The initial spark for Maths with Parents came when Tom Harbour was teaching in a school in Leicester.
Through completing a Masters researching parental engagement, Tom saw what an important role parents have in supporting their child’s learning.
From the start, Learning with Parents has aimed to support all children, with a particular focus on motivating and empowering the most disadvantaged families.
