Dear Parent/Carer,
Do you have a minute to provide the charity behind this accreditation programme with some feedback? We’ve received thousands of fabulous testimonials from primary schools and pre-school settings across the UK, but we’d love to hear what parents think about the programme! We would really appreciate it if you could provide some feedback below that we can use in our supportive and promotional communications. Thank you so much for your support.
