Abstract

This study focused on the benefits parent and teacher collaboration had for students who attended topic specific workshops that were delivered by the teacher to parents, with the intent of enhancing student learning. By establishing a positive learning environment and mutual respect, both parents and teachers collaborated to create common areas of interest to explore. The continued collaboration between parent and teacher evolved into a community of learning, which aimed to build a partnership between school and community. This study provided evidence of its attainment through academic growth and interest of parents in the learning experiences of their children.
