Family and Community Engagement

Supporting EAL Learners to Thrive

Positive relationships with families play a vital role in learner success. We support settings to build meaningful partnerships with parents, carers and communities, ensuring that families feel welcomed, valued and informed. 

Our support may include:

• Reviewing communication systems and practices

• Strategies for engaging multilingual families

• Guidance on supporting newly arrived families

• Developing culturally responsive approaches to parental engagement

• Strengthening community partnerships

Effective family engagement helps create a sense of belonging and supports learners both in and beyond the classroom.
