Parents play a hugely important role, working together with the school on developing a child’s confidence, self-esteem, resilience and willingness to try new things. These seminars delivered in schools enable parents and teachers to learn how to help children develop academically and socially so they reach their full potential.
Parents are undoubtedly a child’s first and most important teacher. Parental engagement with learning and support for their child is the most significant factor in a child’s development and levels of attainment, over and above anything taught at school.
