Family-centered education systems are essential for fostering partnerships between families, schools, and communities, which significantly enhance student learning and development. A collaborative effort led by the Center for Universal Education has produced a series of policy briefs that adapt findings from the international study, 'Six Global Lessons on How Family, School, and Community Engagement can Transform Education,' to various national contexts. These briefs outline strategies for countries including Bangladesh, Brazil, Colombia, Sierra Leone, and South Africa to strengthen family engagement in education. For instance, in Bangladesh, the government acknowledges the vital role of families in ensuring students' participation and well-being amidst challenges like high educational costs and early marriage. Similarly, Brazil's education framework recognizes family engagement but lacks actionable guidance for implementation. Colombia's Alianza Familia-Escuela aims to enhance family involvement across all educational levels, while Sierra Leone focuses on expanding family roles beyond mere accountability. South Africa's investments in early childhood development highlight the need for families to engage actively in their children's learning. Additionally, the briefs advocate for elevating student voices in educational decision-making to foster leadership and participation among youth.
