Summary
The article explores in detail the role of school-family collaboration in strengthening the national and moral education of students. The main purpose of the study is to determine the impact of joint activities between the school and the family on the development of the child’s personality, respect for national values, and patriotic feelings. The study shows that neither the school nor the family alone can provide complete and sustainable results in national and moral education. The school provides children with knowledge and social skills, while the family, through example and daily reinforcement of national values, ensures their practical application. Active parental involvement, joint celebrations of national holidays and cultural events, and systematic teacher-parent communication strengthen children’s moral development. The article also presents concrete pedagogical methods and recommendations for effective school-family collaboration. These approaches enable coordinated planning of educational activities, integration of national and moral values into teaching, and the development of students’ social and moral skills. The results of the study can be practically applied to enhance the effectiveness of educational processes both at school and at home and to reinforce children’s national and moral knowledge and habits. In conclusion, school-family collaboration serves as a fundamental pillar of national and moral education and contributes to the comprehensive development of students both academically and morally.
