The most important goal of education is to grow up

children as good people and good citizens.

Factors such as school, family, environment and

teacher take crucial roles in education of children.

While in the childhood phase of an individual life,

the family was responsible at the first degree in

education, social changes which appeared under the

influence of scientific and technological

improvements have caused the families to share

their responsibilities with other institutions such as

schools.

The function of schools and the other

institutions in education has supportive and

supplementary characteristic for the function

of family because love, trust, morale, warm

family environment which are necessary

during the upbringing period cannot be

transmitted by any other institutions as much

as family (Çelik, 2005).

The results of several studies in the field of

educational sciences indicate the cricial impact

of school-family cooperation (Çelenk, 2003;

Gümüşeli, 2004).

Family relations and cooperation with school,

their participation in school activities and their

support are the essential issues which are

concerned all around the world (Şişman, 2002).

There is an increasing interest among

families to play active roles at schools as a

result of recognition of families’

importance in education.

To establish a strong school-family cooperation,

true transmission of information related to

students is compulsory.

As a result, families need to know their off

sibling well and they should be knowledgeable

of their children’s interest and behaviors

(Aslanargun, 2007).

The schools which have succeed in participating

family members in education, adopt the

understanding of cooperation in all aspects of

children’s education rather than the traditional

view of simple signing actions and interaction

between just family and teacher.

These schools cooperate not only for activities

inside schools but also activities outside schools.

To establish cooperation there is no perfect method suitable for all of the schools, students or communities.

Education and in-service training are wonderful investments.

Communication is the basis of effective cooperation.

Flexibility and variety should be taken into consideration.

For school-family cooperation external sources can be beneficial in terms of financial aids and educational support.

For successful communication, continuous effort is crucial.

In cooperation projects, multi-indicators and effects of cooperation are regularly assessed.
