Government has promised new guidance to help schools tackle harassment of staff and extended its school leader mental health support scheme for another three years.
The guidance pledge comes as the proportion of school leaders who have been verbally abused by parents is rising. Some schools have called for a national campaign to stamp it out.
One trust has written its own code of conduct for parents, while others have written letters pleading for better behaviour.
The guidance for schools will help them to prevent and tackle bullying and harassment of school staff, government said. It is expected to be completed this spring.
