Charity Family Action and the National Association of Head Teachers are working together to produce a series of leaflets for schools to pass on to parents.
The latest publication urges parents to make time to listen to their children and to have “quality family time for speaking and listening”.
It contains advice based around what parents and carers can do to help develop children’s communication skills.
Putting aside mobile phones for short periods is recommended as a good way that parents can show children that their news and views are important.
The leaflet is being sent to the NAHT’s 28,500 members in order for them to pass it on to parents. It can also be downloaded online.
