Ordinary days, and the harder ones.
Most days, Assembly is your class helping each other. When something isn’t right, it helps you raise it clearly, with a dated record. Start where you are; you don’t have to do everything at once.
Your class, on ordinary days
Find your class
Search for your school and ask to join your child’s class room. Families already in the room let new ones in, so it stays the parents you’d see at the gate. If your class doesn’t have a room yet, you can start one. Groups across the school, like dyslexia support, work the same way for families from any class.
Ask for a hand, or offer one
A late pick-up, a lift, an hour of minding, something to borrow. Ask one person first, the families you know, or the whole room, and see who says yes. Only the person helping sees your private note.
Share the load
Rosters for meals or reading, and a class calendar where families add get-togethers and who’s bringing what. Assembly reminds you the evening before your turn.
Know your week
Everything you’ve said yes to, across your rooms, in one list you can add to your phone’s calendar. If you turn on alerts, a note on Sunday evening sets out the week ahead.
When something isn’t right
Tell us what’s going on
Write what happened, then add a date or the outcome you’d like if you know them. Your record is saved to your account. Assembly does not send it to the school.
We draft the letter
You shouldn’t have to find the right words while you’re worried. We turn your answers into a calm, factual letter to the right person, and you edit every word of it. Then you send it from your own email: a letter about your child should come from you, so the school replies to you directly.
We keep the dates straight
Tell us the day you sent it, and Assembly records it alongside what happened next. A timing note appears only where the policy publishes one, in its own words and units; otherwise we leave the due date blank instead of guessing.
Raise it together, if it helps
In your class’s private room, where parents let each other in, you can find out whether others noticed the same thing and turn the conversation into one clear request that the parents who agree support together. The school sees how many members support it, and the names of those who chose to show theirs. It never sees the conversation.
Take it further, the sourced way
If a concern needs to go beyond the school, Assembly shows the route for your state and kind of school: each office in order, what it can and can’t do, and the policy it comes from. See the pathway →
Assembly explains how the process works and helps you organise and keep a record. It is not legal advice, and it never predicts what a school or authority will decide. For advice about your specific situation, you may need a qualified advocate or community legal service in your state; Assembly does not choose or endorse an adviser.
Start where you are.
Find your class’s room for the everyday. Whenever something isn’t right, start a private record; it’s yours to build at your own pace.
