The Parent Voice Project explores how parents experience the education system in England today. Through large-scale polling, focus groups and ongoing engagement, the project brings together clear, balanced evidence on what parents think, what they value, and where they see challenges.

Parents play a central role in children’s education. Yet while teachers, unions and policymakers are regularly consulted on national debates, parents’ collective views are often heard only indirectly. This project aims to address that gap – not by campaigning, but by providing rigorous and accessible insight into the experiences of thousands of families.
