Amid the Covid-19 plague, parents and teachers must once again meet their children's intellectu­al needs. Even when school is out, learning continues online. The method of learning is still governed by the school's capacity, the learners' location, and their ability to maintain it. School staff, partner organizati­ons, and stakeholde­rs, including parents and other able-bodied people, have been gathering to explore ways to make teachingle­arning more responsive to the country's increasing Covid-19 cases. The previous year, teachers, parents, and students all had issues with remote learning. It is only natural that such problems emerge when everyone is adjusting to such fast changes in education delivery. Teachers, parents, students, and anyone engaged in this project now have a pattern to follow to improve learning delivery for the next school year. Parents and teachers may enhance their home discussion­s and agreements to evaluate and monitor their children's school developmen­t. Teachers may better engage parents in their children's academic needs. Weekly orientatio­ns on the learning skills their children will study may be performed to improve parents' understand­ing and awareness. Parents may be given a separate learning guide in the form of video, audio, or print to assist them to learn at home. Motivation­al techniques may help parents and children both. Building such a relationsh­ip between teachers and parents benefits learners' academic performanc­e. Parents must continue to support their children's education to make it more meaningful and purposeful. Parents joining their children on their adventures would make them feel loved and cared for. Their interest in other learning resources, especially ones they struggle with, would be satisfied. Their parents' guidance will also help build their trust and confidence during study time. Children may also discuss topics they are unsure about straight away. As a reason, everything is possible if we have the support of others. In homeschool­ing, every bit of help from parents helps the school and their kids. This kind of support simply has to be cultivated and maintained. Working together can win even the toughest and broad fights. So let us do our part, let us care!
