What parents can do Provide a quiet, well-lit desk space for private study Support him with personal organisation! (New challenges such as files etc.) Monitor sleeping & gaming! Read coursework/homework (if possible) and help your son with projects. Buy additional reading materials/study guides for subjects and encourage independent learning. Discuss topics around the table that he is studying in school. Be positive with your child. Support is vital to success.
