In the classroom, the role of a parent
can be a valuable commodity. In researching this point, we
found support that proves the role of the parent to be a
positive one. Our findings are as follows, as derived from
the NCPIE web site
- Parents are more able to exchange
information with their child's teacher.
- It can serve as a chance for
parents to have an active role in decision making
(discipline, assessment, learning styles
etc.)
- Volunteering and assisting the
teacher in the classroom also allows parents to become
involved.
- It increases the amount of
collaboration in their child's learning.
"When parents/families are involved in
their children's education, children do better in school."
