Parent education hub set up
A new feature hub has been set up on the Smart Parent Net to provide parents of school children with one-stop access to information on parent education courses and activities, the Education Bureau said today.
It noted that the Parent Education Activity Information Hub aims to further enhance the parenting knowledge and skills of parents of kindergarten, primary and secondary school children.
The hub lists parent education courses and activities organised by the Government as well as post-secondary institutions in Hong Kong. The content will be updated regularly.
Parents can filter activity information by using the category function, such as district, activity type, target participants and organiser. There are also application links for the courses and activities.
The Smart Parent Net, launched in February 2018, provides useful information on supporting students’ physical and psychological development, as well as diversified video clips and articles on parent education.
The bureau issued a circular memorandum to all kindergartens, primary and secondary schools in Hong Kong to encourage them to recommend the net and the newly launched hub to parents.
