The role of parents in the school

“Parents and professionals ought to work towards the goal of developing a partnership whose efforts are helpful to the child”.

 

Today, it has become necessary for parents to participate in school matters in such a way that they will be able to make a positive and active contribution, in the interests of the child in particular and the school in general, to the effectiveness of the school.

We need the:

• support of all school objectives

• loyalty to school and school policies

• creation of academic awareness at home

• encouragement of learners to participate fully in the school’s extra-mural programme

• supervision of homework

• commitment to pay all fees levied by the school

• setting of accepted levels of discipline and self-discipline at home

• development of a sense of pride within their children

Remember, "only the best is good enough for my child!"
