Building Positive Study Habits at Home: A Guide for Parents

Creating a peaceful, consistent study habit at home is one of the greatest gifts parents can provide to primary school students. Here are four practical guidelines from our educators:

• Designate a quiet study nook: Ensure good lighting, clean table, and zero mobile phone or television distractions.
• Maintain consistent timing: Study at the same time each day (e.g. 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM).
• Praise effort over marks: Acknowledge perseverance and neat handwriting rather than obsessing only over scores.
• Healthy sleep and nutrition: Children under 10 require 9-10 hours of uninterrupted sleep for memory consolidation.
