Alongside her journalism, the archived website described Hilary Wilce as an editorial consultant and adviser. This page summarises that part of the profile. It is historical background, not an offer of services.

Editorial consultancy

The old site said she helped organisations and publications shape and sharpen their educational messages. This kind of work involves advising on how an institution talks about learning, for instance in a magazine pitch, a publication for an awards scheme or material aimed at parents. The page referred to projects such as an early-years magazine concept and publications connected to a national teaching awards body.

Speaking and workshops

Wilce was also listed as a speaker for school, business and parent audiences, as well as at conferences and workshops. Her favoured subject was the relationship between home and school, meaning both the ways schools engage families and the ways parents can support learning.

Why home-school links matter

Many education researchers argue that close contact between families and schools supports children’s learning and wellbeing. Her book, Help Your Child Succeed At School, took the same view for parents, and her advice column Quandary regularly answered questions from both parents and teachers.

Date of the information
