Question: I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Good parent - teacher communication is necessary for a child's success in school. Recent studies show that the more actively parents are involved in the child's school life. The better the child does in his studies. Like all relationships, parents and teachers affect each other, but the person who is most affected is the child. What they need to understand is that the educational success depends on many things, including the ability of the parents and teacher to know his needs and what he likes, and encourage him. When a child's teacher and parents work together in the best interests of the child, he may feel able to learn, but, more importantly, also feel supported. Education is about much more than just academic success. We must use the parent-teacher relationship to help a child grow and learn. So, how should parents and teacher work together?

Doing this can help him to learn about the world in which he lives. This is how good parent-teacher communication supports the parent, teacher and, finally, the child.
