Supplementary to question No. 10

in the LegCo Meeting on 4.12.85

Mrs. Rita Fan:- Sir, does the Government recognise that family

circumstances have a very significant effect on the behaviour of

students and if so, what has the Government done to assist schools

and teachers in strengthening the relationship between the parents

and teachers and whether the Government has any plans to draw parents'

attention to their responsibilities in this area in a coordinated

manner?

Secretary for Education and Manpower:- I think, Sir, mainly we have

to do is by public education, For example, the pamphlet I refer to

was designed for parents as well as for teachers.
