Role of Parents
To become an independent lifelong learner, the child must understand his or her identity as a learner. Educators are the primary point of contact at school because they interact with children and observe each child’s thinking and learning daily.
This intimate knowledge of a child’s learning complements parents’ insights into that child’s preferences, tendencies, personality, interests, talents, and aspirations; therefore, cooperation between educators and parents are essential to support a child’s progression along his or her educational journey.
