Which of the following is true about the role of parents in a child's education?

  1. They should only engage when necessary

  2. They have no influence on academic motivation

  3. Consistent engagement can enhance the child's learning experience

  4. They are responsible for All of the child's assessments

The correct answer is: Consistent engagement can enhance the child's learning experience

Consistent engagement of parents in a child's education is recognized as a critical factor in enhancing the child's learning experience. Research shows that when parents actively participate in their children's schooling—by communicating with teachers, attending meetings, and supporting learning at home—students tend to perform better academically. This engagement fosters a supportive home environment, reinforces the importance of education, and motivates children to take their studies seriously. It also helps to establish a partnership between parents and educators, ensuring that children receive the necessary support both at home and in school. This collaborative effort not only improves academic outcomes but also nurtures social and emotional development, ultimately aiding in the overall success of the child in their educational journey.
