Early Education Awards

Best Parental Engagement Award for Early Education Institutions

About the Award

Parents play a vital role in the success of their children, and along with educators and a wider support system, they create the nurturing and supportive environment required for schildren to thrive and fulfill their highest potential.

Parental support influences children’s levels of confidence and motivation and plays a huge role in their interest in the early education institution and their pursuit of goals. Children raised with positive parental engagement and stability are likely to perform better academically than those who do not. They also have greater self-esteem and are less likely to experience wellbeing challenges.

Has your early education institution redefined parental engagement in ways that catalyzed a positive change and inspired and equipped parents in your early education institution community to be more engaged? If so, we want to hear from you.
