Parent Contact Log

A free printable contact log — date, how, who was spoken to, the reason, what was said, what was agreed and whether it was followed up.

First page of the Parent Contact Log — Record contact with home factually, so what was said and agreed is on paper rather than in two different memories.

What this sheet is for

Record contact with home factually, so what was said and agreed is on paper rather than in two different memories.

Who it is for

Teachers, tutors, nurseries, clubs, coaches and anyone who contacts families about a child.

How to use it

  1. Record it the same day, in factual language.
  2. Write what was agreed and by when, not just what was discussed.
  3. Note if you passed anything on, and to whom.
  4. Keep it secure and share it only with those who need it.
  5. Keep it only as long as your setting's rules require.

What is on the sheet

The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.
