Família e escola: Parceria indispensável para uma educação de qualidade

Abstract

Education has been understood as the exclusive responsibility of schools. However, this view has changed over the years as families have been invited to take part in their children's educational process. The study's overall objective is to analyze the importance of the partnership between school and family for success in education. The specific objectives include: recognizing the importance of family participation in monitoring their children's schooling; understanding the role of schools in the academic, intellectual, and cognitive development of students; and identifying alternatives capable of strengthening the relationship between families and schools so that they can play an integral role in the child's education. The research is exploratory in nature and adopts a qualitative approach, focusing on understanding social situations. To achieve the overall objective, a literature review was conducted in scientific articles, books, and final coursework, using keywords such as: family, school, students, and education. The results showed that the partnership between families and schools is essential for the educational development of children, evidencing that active parental collaboration has a positive impact on students' academic performance and behavior. The research indicated that schools play a crucial role in the integral development of students, while family involvement in school monitoring is vital to reinforce learning. Effective practices, such as regular meetings and community events, were identified that can strengthen this relationship. We concluded that building a solid bond between family and school enriches the educational experience and promotes an environment that is favorable to the emotional and social development of children.
