The Role of Parents in a child's learning
Research shows that parental involvement in children's learning is a key factor in improving children's academic attainment and achievements, as well as their overall behaviour and attendance.
Parents are the biggest influence on their child's development during the earliest years. Good quality home learning contributes more to children's intellectual and social development than parental occupation, education or income.
