Quản lý hoạt động phối hợp giữa nhà trường và gia đình trong công tác nuôi dưỡng, chăm sóc, giáo dục trẻ tại các trường mầm non phường Minh Phụng, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh

Abstract

Coordination between schools and families in nurturing and educating preschool children plays an important role in creating a coherent educational environment and promoting children’s holistic development. This study evaluates the current status of the management of school-family coordination activities in nurturing, caring for, and educating children at preschools in Minh Phung Ward, Ho Chi Minh City. For quantitative data, the study surveyed 120 participants, including administrators, teachers, and parents, using a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire. The findings indicate that the management of coordination activities was implemented at a moderately high level in terms of planning, organization, direction, and monitoring and evaluation. Highly rated aspects included identifying coordination objectives, establishing organizational structures, providing implementation guidance, and determining the content of monitoring and evaluation activities. However, several limitations were identified, such as ineffective collection of stakeholders' feedback during planning, limited resource allocation, irregular preliminary and final reviews, and uneven parental participation. These limitations stemmed from socio-economic conditions, parents’ occupational characteristics, the coordination management capacity of administrators and teachers, and the limited use of information technology. Thereby, the study proposes several measures to enhance the effectiveness of managing school-family coordination activities in preschool education.
