How can parents support their children?

Parents play a central role in the school success of children and
adolescents. Good cooperation between school and home, which leads
to mutual understanding, is an important factor of success. Parents and
school are closely linked by the children. The children talk about their
school experiences at home every day and bring family life back to
school. The upbringing and education of children is the common goal of
legal guardians and teachers. In cooperation and shared responsibility,
they fulfill the educational mandate. The common goal of parents and
school is the best support of each individual child. It should develop its
skills, thrive in professional life and be able to participate in social life.
While the parents are responsible for education, maintenance, care and
education, the school must impart school knowledge and skills without
neglecting their educational mandate.
