 e way of thinking about engagement. There are many ways and many places in
  which parents are engaged with their children's teaching and learning.  W
 hen you think about parent engagement\, it is important to ask yourself\, 
 'Engaged in what?' and 'Engaged with whom?'  When you consider parent enga
 gement in its fullest sense\, you see that your resources are extensive an
 d 'you are richer than you think.'   Debbie will share examples of the way
 s in which the concept of parent engagement can be translated into practic
 e\, including possibilities for engaging parents with teachers\, children\
 , subject matter and milieu - both in the school context and in the home c
 ontext. \n\n\n** Register by March 1st\, 2013 in the ESS Office! **
