CARS & STARS Online and Parents

Daniel Lee
3 May 2022

The pace of the modern world, and the increased distance between parents and their children’s day-to-day lives, has made it harder for parents to keep on top of their children’s learning and participate in their journey to advanced reading comprehension. Parents should be the champions of our schools and of their children’s learning, but often the pace of daily life, and the pace of instruction, means that they are kept at an arm’s length from the process. They might only engage periodically – or when something goes wrong.

The CARS & STARS Online program uses technology to open doors for parents that let them better understand the context of their child’s learning and have a more engaged role within it. CARS & STARS Online also enables informed and meaningful conversations about learning at home, and at school, because parents are given an instant overview of their child’s progress that they can access at any time and from anywhere.

With a CARS & STARS Online Parent subscription to complement their child’s Student or Child account, parents can utilise full connectivity with their child’s learning. From any device, parents can instantly call up a quick view of their child’s progress and track their progression through the program, just as a teacher can. 

With CARS & STARS Online at home, and new features like our Strategy Posters and Sticker Sets, the classroom is never far away, and school learning is continually reinforced. But one of the unique benefits of CARS & STARS Online for parents is the ability to undertake the program outside of a school setting, with Parent and Child accounts. Just like for Teachers, this gives access to the program’s trademark comprehensive data analysis and detailed reports.

Whereas once a parent may have had to wait for scheduled interactions with their child’s teacher to really get a good grasp of how their child was faring at school, CARS & STARS Online offers unprecedented ways for parents to be informed of and involved in their child’s education – from anywhere and at any time.

If you are interested in learning more about the CARS & STARS Online subscriptions and how they can help children to achieve better results, then sign up for a free trial to be an integral part of your child’s reading success.
