Extractions: RoadPeace , the UK's national charity for bereaved and injured road traffic victims, was set up in February 1992 to meet the overwhelming need for a national organisation to represent and support this huge group of victims and draw attention to their almost non-existent rights. At the same time, RoadPeace launched the first and only national helpline for road victims, offering vital information and support 12 hours every single day, backed up by publications written from the victims' perspective and practical experience of hundreds of cases. For over 12 years now, RoadPeace has gathered information about the position of road traffic victims and road danger, through monitoring and research, and has used this knowledge to inform and educate the public, all relevant agencies and Government departments.

Extractions: For and About Members Help for Parents Press Center Legislative Action Center ... Other Resources Thirty years of research clearly shows that parent and community involvement in schools improves student achievement. To reach their potential, students need parents and the community to take an active role in their education. Schools are working hard to provide a high quality education for every child. But they can't do it alone. Parent and community involvement is critical to creating great schools. There are many ways parents, other adults who play an important role in a child's life, and community groups can be involved with children's education at home, at school and in the community. As a parent, or an adult who plays an important role in the life of a child, your involvement in your child's education at school and at home shows your child that you value education. Teachers can see that you care about your children's learning. You can provide teachers with the most reliable source of information about your child. The partnership between you and your child's teacher is powerful. Here are some ways you can be involved in your child's education each year at school: Meet the teacher.

Extractions: Source: ERIC Clearinghouse on Educational Management Eugene OR. Home Schooling. ERIC Digest, Number 95. A small but growing number of school-aged children will not routinely spend time in a school classroom this year. Instead, these children engage in HOME SCHOOLINGthat is, they will pursue learning at home or elsewhere in the community. There is no one way to do it. One family may begin with opening ceremonies to signal the start of the daily routine and follow a scheduled curriculum. Another family may opt for child-led learning, where parents provide help as the child expresses interest in a topic. Usually parents provide supervision and help, but most children assume increasing responsibility for choosing and carrying out projects as they mature. Most families involved in home schooling organize activities with other families. Some children spend part of their time at a local public or private school, or a nearby college.

Extractions: ISSUE: school climate school-family partnerships . Such partnerships connect families and schools to help children succeed in school and in their future. OVERVIEW: The relationship between school climate and family involvement is reciprocal: Each one feeds the other in a cyclical pattern. In a positive school climate that encourages family involvement, the parents' perceptions of the school improve. Joyce L. Epstein, director of the Center on Families, Communities, Schools, and Children's Learning at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, comments on the positive results of a good partnership between schools and families. Excerpted from "Theory to Practice: School and Family Partnerships Lead to School Improvement and Student Success," by J.L.

Extractions: ISSUE: Educators sometimes are content to let parents and families take the initiative in becoming involved in their children's education. But for a real partnership to occur, educators must look at ways in which the school can initiate this involvement. In such a partnership, the school and the home share responsibility for children's learning; the relationship is based on mutual respect and acknowledgment of the assets and expertise of each member. As an extension of this partnership, schools can emphasize a broad base of community involvement . When schools develop and implement strategies for promoting effective school-family-community partnerships , the result is improved learning for all students and strengthened schools, families, and communities. Overview Goals Action Options Pitfalls ... References OVERVIEW: benefits of parent and family involvement include higher test scores and grades, better attendance, more completion of homework, more positive attitudes and behavior, higher graduation rates, and greater enrollment in higher education. A literature review of school-family partnerships indicates that benefits are apparent not only for younger children but all students through high school. Although parent involvement typically is strongest at the primary level, continued involvement through the
