Helpful Home Learning Tips for Parents
- Be mindful that you’re a parent and not a teacher and your child will see you as a carer rather than an educator. Try to take the pressure off yourself and off your child to complete work quickly and efficiently.
- Try to avoid the word ‘homework’ and explain home learning more that they are attending school through the internet and encourage children by reminding them that the teacher is on the receiving end and looking forward to seeing their work.
- Remember that learning has changed since we were at school and that you are also learning these methods. Remind your child that you are learning together and you will help as best you can.
- School provides a routine for children and so try to implement a routine into your day. School also has natural breaks between lessons and it is important to remember this. See our document on a recommended daily routine on your Home Learning Page.
- Contact your child’s school if you are concerned regarding your child’s wellbeing.
