The teacher should find ways to communicate with parents to encourage them to support their children. If the parents can't come to school, the teachers should conduct home visitations. The parents should be involved in their children's preparation for the NAT. The pupils should develop positive attitude toward study through the help of their parents and teachers. They should always seek assistance from their teacher when it comes to a subject that can hardly cope with.
