Current research1 has found that dads who engage with their children’s schooling can make a huge difference in the child’s education and academic advancement.
Attending parent/teacher evenings, helping the Parents’ Association, volunteering for school sports, attending class BBQ’s – the list goes on. These are just some of the ways dads can connect with their children’s learning and be an important part of their school life.
When available, dads can help in the classroom, go on excursions or be a class mystery guest during the year.
