Parent Portal - Helping Your Child with Learning at Home
The Ministry of Education has released a parent portal to help whānau partner with schools to support their child’s education. From Minister Stanford: “Education is a partnership of what happens in the classroom and what happens at home. Parents, caregivers, and whānau play an important role in supporting their child’s learning and development. The new webspace is designed to make it easier for parents, caregivers, and whānau to access clear and up-to-date information on the school curriculum, assessment practices, and ways they can complement their child’s learning.”
