Parent Education Framework
Every parent hopes their children will grow up healthy, confident, and well-prepared for the future. To better support parents in nurturing their children, the Education Bureau launched the “Parent Education Framework (Secondary School)” on 28 May 2024. This framework provides schools with clear guidelines for designing parent education activities and helps parents systematically equip themselves with essential knowledge and skills.
The framework covers four core strands:
- Strand 1: Understanding of Adolescent Development
- Strand 2: Promotion of Healthy, Happy and Balanced Development of Adolescents
- Strand 3: Promotion of Parents’ Physical and Psychological Well-being
- Strand 4: Fostering Home-School Co-operation and Communication
