The report here on documentation and parental support forms part of a wider investigation conducted by Sheila Wolfendale and her colleagues into parent partnership schemes. Local authorities have made clear progress since 1993 in providing information and advice to parents although variations still remain. Wolfendale argues that parental advice is the fourth ‘cornerstone’ of assessment.
