Established in 1993, the committee advises the Education Bureau (EDB), other government departments, and non-government organisations on ways to promote parental involvement in education.
Its work includes conducting surveys, allocating project grants to schools, publicising better home–school relations, and encouraging the establishment of parent–teacher associations (PTAs).
[2][3][6] Since then, the number of parent–teacher associations (PTAs) has increased from around 70 in 1992 to over 1,395 in the 2002–2003 academic year.
This includes an ex-officio member from the EDB and other members who are educators, parents with children enrolled in local schools, or professionals from the medical, legal, accountancy, and commercial sectors.
