Parental education and teachers training for the role of parental guides in Europe

Resumen

As teachers, we feel we have a duty toward our students in helping them to become their best version, by providing not what they want, but what they need. And what they need mostly is an interested and informed parent, who doesn’t stop learning about the different stages her child goes through in order to support her all the way in becoming an independent and accomplished
adult and a good future parent.
We begun this year’s project at the kindergarten “Tudor Vladimirescu” regarding parental education using previous data. Along the way, by participating to the conference “Good practices of parenting at European level”, we gained information we used in some training sessions. Furthermore, we used the research developed by the Grundtvig project Leadlab to develop tools for parental education and gained more by the teamwork from the
study visit “Adult education – validation of former learning and assessing progress and achievement”.
