THE FAMILY-SCHOOL PARTNERSHIP AS REGARDS PROVIDING STUDENTS WITH ADDITIONAL SUPPORT

Summary/Abstract: An extremely important task of contemporary school refers to its obligation to satisfy students’ needs for receiving adequate support regarding schoolwork and education. Providing students with additional support is a complex and demanding process which may be successfully realized on condition that the cooperation between all the significant subjects from a child’s environment has been developed, especially between their parents, teachers and professional associates of the school. It is very important to provide parents’ proactive participation in the process of providing students with additional support, starting from the phase of planning the measures and activities that are to be realized until their evaluation. Parents’ proactive participation in this process actually makes the foundation of developing a family-school partnership – an approach or model of cooperation which is increasingly being affirmed not only in pedagogical theory but also in school work practice. This paper focuses on explaining different approaches towards understanding the importance of the family-school partnership as well as describing different ways of establishing this cooperation within the process of providing students with additional support with brief reference to the current condition of the Serbian school system. In the final part of the text there are some key prerequisites for the development of the family-school partnership as regards providing students with additional support.
