As a parent, you know your child better than anyone else does. Your child’s teachers will want to get to know your child too.
When everybody is working together in the best interests of your child, your child is likely to reap academic and social benefits, like:
- regular school attendance
- positive school results
- a positive attitude towards school
- good social and relationship skills
- a sense of wellbeing
- school completion
- progression to post-secondary education like TAFE, university or an apprenticeship.
