Teachers are often referred to as second parents, but does that mean parents should take a backseat in their child’s education? Absolutely not! We at Friends’ Academy, ICSE school, actively encourage parental involvement in various school activities. Beyond annual school fests and parent-teacher meetings, numerous opportunities allow parents to engage with their children’s academic and extracurricular journey, fostering their overall success.
How Parent-School Collaboration Enhances a Child’s Growth at Friends’ Academy?
- Establishing Goals for Academic Success
While teachers track student progress at school, parents play an equally crucial role at home. Consistent communication between teachers and parents ensures that students receive the necessary guidance and encouragement. At Friends’ Academy, our teachers actively engage with parents through WhatsApp and other communication channels to provide regular updates about their child’s progress. This proactive approach helps align educational goals and fosters a supportive learning environment.
- Open Communication Between Parents and Teachers
Transparency is key to student development. Parents should share important details about their child’s school experience, challenges, and achievements, allowing teachers to offer better support. At Friends’ Academy, we prioritize continuous communication with parents, ensuring they are well informed about their child’s academic performance and emotional well-being.
- Encouraging Parents to Participate in Activities
Parents play an integral role in shaping their child’s experiences. Friends’ Academy, being ICSE School, has designed our events in a manner that actively allows parents to participate alongside their children in events such as Grandparents’ Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Sports Day, and Cultural Day. These engagements not only create cherished memories but also help parents observe their child’s interests and talents, fostering stronger family bonds.
- Supporting Learning at Home
Education extends beyond the classroom. Our teachers guide parents on how to assist their children with homework, develop strong study habits, and reinforce essential life skills. By incorporating storytelling, teaching manners, and problem-solving techniques, parents contribute to a child’s holistic development. Effective collaboration between teachers and parents ensures that children receive consistent support both at school and at home.
The Power of Collective Effort
When parents, teachers, and students work together, the learning experience becomes more interactive and impactful. Regardless of whether your child studies in an ICSE school or another board, parental involvement is crucial for their academic and personal growth. By staying engaged, parents can better understand their child’s needs and provide timely support.
