What is school-family partnership?
School-family partnership is two-way communication between educators and caregivers to support learning.
Key concepts and practice
Communication need not wait for a problem. Share goals, observed progress and practical small steps for home. Respect caregivers’ language, time and preferred channels. Protect student privacy and avoid comparison with other children.
Examples, evaluation and limits
Feedback runs both ways: home context informs teaching. Do not assume identical resources across families. Meeting attendance alone can overlook work and transport barriers.
