Home School Partnership

A strong collaboration between parents and teachers is essential to creating a positive and supportive environment for the holistic development of our children.

To strengthen this partnership, the Ministry of Education (MOE) has introduced refreshed Guidelines for School-Home Partnership (GSHP). These guidelines were announced by Minister for Education Chan Chun Sing at Schools Work Plan Seminar on 18 September 2024.

Together, schools and parents will work to raise a happy, confident and kind generation by:

  • Communicating with each other respectfully

  • Being positive role models for our children

  • Supporting our children in building strong relationships and healthy habits in the digital age.

This image shows a resource titled "Guidelines for School-Home Partnership: Raising a Happy, Confident, and Kind Generation Together", which appears to be a joint effort by the Ministry of Education and COMPASS (based on the small text at the bottom). The material is organised around three key themes: Respectful Communication focuses on fostering trust and collaboration between parents and educators. The guidance includes listening to and understanding each other's perspectives, communicating kindly during difficult conversations, and respecting each other's boundaries. Role Models encourages showing children the skills and values they need for life — such as practising gratitude and kindness in everyday experiences, instilling a sense of play and responsibility, and modelling good values in words and actions at home and at school. Real Connections is about cultivating strong relationships and healthy habits in the digital age. This includes building bonds through shared experiences, establishing good habits around technology use, and providing a balance of online and offline activities at school and at home.
