Are parents viewed as a vital part of their child’s learning journey?When parents are actively involved in their child’s education, better results are achieved. It is vitally important that parents support their children in their homework, test preparation, task completion and are present at sporting matches or cultural events. We also encourage parental involvement through our SGB, PTA, class representatives, Praying Moms and volunteering their time at fund raising initiatives. Communication with the school and teachers is key.
