The Impact of a Good Parent-Teacher Relationship in a Child’s Performance
A good and positive teacher-parent relationship can really impact how a child performs in their studies. Teachers and parents both provide a support system for the student to succeed. When parents and teachers are able to communicate and work effectively together, it can drastically impact each student’s long-term success and overall enjoyment of school.
Positive connections between parents and teachers have been shown to improve children’s academic achievement, social competencies and emotional well-being. When parents and teachers work as partners, children do better in school and at home.
A positive relationship between parents and teachers means they are comfortable talking to each other. They can share news about their progress, talk about any concerns, and work together to support the learning journey.
Teachers should involve the parents in general planning for their child’s inclusion. Parents and teachers should occasionally meet to discuss the child, the parents can inform the teachers on what their expectations are, the type of child they are and what the child struggles with. This gives the teacher an idea of how to go about teaching and helping the child, and teachers can express what they need from the parents and how the parents can support the child at home.
Sometimes parents can volunteer at the school, helping out with events, projects, or activities. This can create a stronger sense of community and partnership.
At Pearl of Africa International School, we value our parents’ input towards the school and any concerns or ideas they may have. It is also important for us to give our parents a channel to voice their concerns as it also makes them feel heard, understood and also an important part of our community.
