Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant changes to the role of the family and put a strain on parent-teacher relationships. However, the pandemic has also provided insights into strengthening parent-teacher relationships. A healthy and strong partnership between parents and teachers is essential for recovery from the learning loss caused by the pandemic. This research method uses a literature study to get an overview of the changing patterns of parent-teacher partnerships in post-pandemic PAUD. This study aims to understand the shifting roles of parents and teachers due to COVID-19, thus forming a new pattern of parent-educator engagement in PAUD. Overall, the results show that parent-teacher partnerships in early childhood education have undergone changes over time, with increased parental involvement, changes in communication patterns, and the need for a deeper understanding of the family-school relationship. The traditional pattern of mere attendance and volunteerism is changing to proactive parental involvement with increasing expectations of deeper involvement with the child's school. This may be due to parents' more advanced understanding of the use of technology and an increased understanding of the processes, materials and assessments involved in assisting children during distance learning.
