Welcome to the Southwark Black Parents Forum

Our purpose is to provide information, support and guidance to African and Caribbean parents in Southwark, in order to highlight the important ways parents, guardians and carers can have active involvement in their children’s education and schooling.

Objectives:

• To give African and Caribbean parents, guardians and carers in the community the chance to have their say on how services are provided by public bodies and organisations locally, and to raise other matters of local concern.
• To promote high global self-esteem of African and Caribbean children, parents, guardians and carers.
• To ensure that advice, guidance and information is provided in the most accessible ways
• To empower African and Caribbean parents, guardians and carers in their ability to become actively involved in local communities and schools
