PIP Project

Family Engagement Officer 

I am Miss Trubey and I am the Family Engagement Worker for Baden Powell Primary. 

I work Monday to Thursday and am based in the PIP Cabin. If I am not there I can be contacted through the school office or on my School Mobile which is 07950645114. 

I have a background in family support work and am keen to engage with as many of our parents as possible. 

I also have a Facebook page where you can see keep up to date with all of the courses/sessions I will be running. To join please search Baden Powell PIP Cabin. 

The aim of the 'Pip project' is to promote parental involvement in children’s learning and the life of the school.

“Research shows that parental involvement makes a big difference to pupils’ engagement and achievement, and evidence indicates that this involvement benefits not only students, but also parents, teachers and schools” DFES

Reading Events 

We have now run two very successful Reading events for all Parents/Carers with a child in the foundation Phase. This will continue to be held once a term. Dates will be sent out in advance. 

At home Learning 

We work closely with Booktrust who provide us with some amazing resources for both our children in Nursery and in Reception. 

Nursery have had both books and Nursery Rhyme packs given to them for you to enjoy at home. 

Reception have the Boomerang book bags being sent out for you to enjoy and return to school. 

Learn Talk Do 

This is a course for Parents of children age 3-11. It gives parents the knowledge and confidence to talk to their children about money. It can be delivered both in a group or as a 1:1 so let Miss Trubey know what you would prefer. 

Stay and play

We have also started to run a half termly stay and play session in Nursery. Parents are invited in to join in an activity with their child. These have proved to be very popular. Again dates will be sent out in advance. 

Family cooking sessions 

We are lucky enough to be working alongside Flourish and their lovely volunteers at Tremorfa Hall. They are providing free cooking sessions for our children and their parent/carers. These take place on a Thursday Morning but the waiting list is currently Full.
