The introduction explains why many parents feel schools are opaque and why teacher workload limits coordination efforts.

\nCyril MBernard  \n# I Introduction\n\nby Christopher Price  \nThis book is for parents.Particularly for parents who want to have someinfluence over their children's education,but are not quite sure how to goabout it.To too many parents,schools are a sort of mysterious productionline onto which they are compelled to feed their children at the tender age offive and from which they emerge ten years later,curiously packaged withskills their parents despair of ever understanding,and set firmly on desti-nations towards which their parents had little hand in guiding them.  \nActually it is not like this at all.It only seems so.All the scientific evidenceagrees that the home,and particularly the home in the first six years of thechild's life,has a far greater influence on the child's development than theschool does.The evidence also shows that those children whose parentsknow what is going on at school and support them athome,get on far betterat school.  \nMost school teachers probably realise this fact,but too few do anythingabout improving the cooperation between home and school.This is probablyinevitable.It is bad enough to mother 40 children and be legally required tolook after them ‘as would a prudent parent'.The thought of taking on 80adults as well,is more than most teachers can stand.  \nThis means that the initiative for home-school cooperation lies far morefirmly in the hands of the parents than they realise.It can be an uphill taskfor parents,especially when one'schildren are struck dumb about everythingbut the most trivial incidents at school,and the teachers disappear at 4o'clock each day.Our hope is that by explaining in some detail how thesystem works,what rights parents have and some of the successful ways inwhich parents and schools do cooperate at the moment,we may give parentsall over the country more confidence in understanding an","cbCain0IYfT9IEkv","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCain0IYfT9IEkv","pdf",2885028,66,"English","# Abbreviations\n#
