Parents are the first, and most vital, teacher any child has. Research shows that children do better at school and throughout life when parents take part in their learning.
In Dundonald Primary and Early Years Centre, we are committed to working in close partnership with parents.
Providing information, practical support and developing strategies to support parents to engage with their children’s learning is one of our key priorities.
On this page, you will find links to useful information, including our Early Years Handbook and School Handbook.
We have also created guides for parents which have been designed to provide information about: our learning and teaching approaches in key areas of literacy and numeracy; starting primary one; and about how you can support your child’s learning at home.
