A child's first and most important teacher is their parents and it’s proven that, when parents are involved in their child’s schooling, they do better and have a more positive attitude atowards learning. Consistency is key to instilling positive school-home links so it’s vital that, right from the outset, a strong relationship is formed between Parents and School.
The best way to maintain a good connection with your child’s school is through the teachers. Here, Mother, Baby & Child interviews Principal Trish King, who heads up Smart Start Kindergarten in Al Barsha South, a US-curriculum pre-school with a focus on physical education for Early Years.
Set boundaries and encourage good behaviour
Young children need guidance and boundaries to develop their key personal skills and learn about acceptable behaviours. In mastering this understanding, they’ll discover that there are many benefits to adopting the right behaviour.
Make sure that, as a parent, you fully understand the school's behavioural policy to ensure that there are commonalities between what's happening in school and at home. It's hard for teachers to imprint expectations if children have entirely different consequences for behaviour at home vs. school.
Remember to focus on positive behaviour and praise your child when they make a good choice.
