  • Schools and Parents – Collaborating to Best Support Children

     «…no school can work well for children if parents and teachers do not act in partnership on behalf of the children’s best interests. Parents have every right to understand what is happening to their children at school, and teachers have the responsibility to share that information without prejudicial judgment…. Such communication, which can only be in a child’s interest, is not possible without mutual trust between parent and teacher.» - Dorothy H. Cohen

Many children will find this a stark contrast compared to their previous structured school day where they lived very full and exciting lives. As we get to grips with the new reality, perhaps it is good to also consider how we can embrace boredom.
