Answer:
Home-school collaboration is an important step in supporting a child’s positive
engagement in the learning and social aspects of school life. Parents and schools have a
common goal; to see children develop the skills for life and learning, to see children
succeed, and to see children happy. The goal of enhancing children’s competence,
participation, and positive learning and social behaviours cannot be achieved by teachers
alone and requires active partnerships with families.
As a future teacher, to establish good home-school collaboration, I should develop
positive partnership.Home-school partnerships are focused on setting joint goals for a child
and ensuring consistency and continuity in how these goals are achieved across home and
school.Positive partnerships are ongoing and responsive in recognition of the ever-changing
learning and social demands on children as they move through their school careers. Parents
and teachers respond to needs as they arise, share successes and build on positive
outcomes.
