Parent Education

The EDB has all along been supporting home-school co-operation, forging home-school partnership and promoting parent education. The Education Commission set up the Task Force on Home-School Cooperation and Parent Education (Task Force) and released its report in April 2019, giving recommendations on further promoting home-school co-operation and parent education. With reference to the recommendation of the Task Force, the EDB adopts a “parent-based” approach in promoting parent education. Since schools are the most direct and effective platform, the EDB has adopted the approach regarding “schools as a primary platform and the community as a complementary” in promoting home-school co-operation and parent education and provided different resources to facilitate schools’ implementation of school-based parent education programmes and activities.
