Cooperation between parents and schools: preventing early school leaving. A conference in Brussels

Schools are where children socialise, learn, develop their competences and personalities and are therefore at the heart of parents’ concern.

 

At the same time, parents do not always find it easy to interact, be represented or get involved in schools even thought an active cooperation between parents and schools is essential to tackling issues like early school leaving, absenteeism, orientation and so forth.

This conference will touch upon all these aspects, pointing out the benefits of cooperation between parents and schools, identifying the obstacles for a successful cooperation and presenting existing good practices. On the 9th of December 2013 at EESC, Rue de Trèves 74, B-1040 Brussels.
