Teacher resource

Parents in CBC: a weekly picture, not a closing-day surprise

CBC asks parents to be in the learning, not only at the prize-giving. That only works if the picture from school is frequent and ordinary. A portal nobody opens is not involvement. A weekly update a guardian can read after supper might be.

Teacher resource, rewritten from the mykurasa.com guide for this site in September 2026. It is not a 60 Decibels percentage. Where a 60dB piece already covers the same weekday job, that piece is a see-also — the figures stay on that ledger.

What parents actually need

What was taught. How the child is doing on the strand, in language that is not a threat. A way to ask the teacher without waiting for closing day. If three children are in the school, they should not need three logins — Miss Wanjiru asked for that in the 60 Decibels human story. The request still stands.

Two ledgers

Seventy-one percent of teachers in the March 2024 60 Decibels sample said parent engagement improved. That sentence lives on its own post. This how-to does not borrow it. Kurasa Home is the product for families. Daily Challenge is five questions, not a report card.

The week should be visible without a closing-day queue.
