What is a Parent Teacher Association (PTA)?

Ralph Lucas (Editor, The Good Schools Guide) gives expert video advice on: How many schools can I apply for?; Will my child have to take a test to get into their preferred school?; What happens to my child's schooling if we move house? and more...

Parent Teacher Association is not something that you will come across much when you're outside of school, but within a school it is the core body that supports that, gets the parents together, and gets them working with the school, gets them supporting the school and gets the school interacting with parents to make sure that what it's doing is what the parent's want to happen with their children. So a strong Parent Teacher Association is a very good indication of a good school.
