The National Parent Survey is the UK’s largest annual poll of parents. Our work with YouGov addresses many tough and highly topical matters facing families. Here, you can download reports from previous years and see how parents’ voices have shaped the national conversation and informed change.
The 2024 National Parent Survey highlighted pressing issues such as the cost-of-living crisis, screen time, mental health and school attendance. The findings revealed that many parents feel unappreciated, struggle to balance work and home, life and are concerned about their children’s safety and enjoyment at school.

The National Parent Survey 2023, conducted by YouGov on behalf of Parentkind, revealed that one in four parents are struggling with the everyday costs of sending their children to school, rising to half of parents with children entitled to free school meals.
85% of parents want a say in their child’s education. Our research informs policy, supports schools and amplifies the parent voice. We collaborate with governments and organisations to drive meaningful change.
