Affiliation for Local Authorites

ACE is very proud of its association and work with local authorities. We support managers and officers working in education departments throughout England and Wales, many of whom ACE has trained through our various seminar and bespoke training programmes. We already provide advice and information for parents in your region, with many school admissions authorities and local authorities signposting parents to our helplines.

Why should you become an affiliate member of ACE?
With our unrivalled feedback from parents and carers in need, and our regular interaction with education professionals and policy-makers, ACE can help your managers and officers across many areas of Children’s Services to deal with issues relating to education. Becoming an affiliate member of ACE will help education managers and officers to get the support and information to enable them to do their jobs more effectively.
