Co-founder of CISC network Lidia Bilas told us about the parents’ real expectations from a school, how they see the process of a child’s adaptation to life, and what is usually understood by «high quality education». Ms Lidia inspired the audience, shared the ideas for effective communication between the school and the parents, and provided us with astonishing statistical facts:

Turns out that 31% of the parents questioned in 27 countries of the world (27 400 participants) realize that, in their opinion, they don’t pay enough attention to their children’s education.

«Correctly formulated expectations of the parents and their inclusion into the educational process result in the highest rate of efficiency and uniformity of a child’s education in family-school co-relation».

CISC psychologist and fairytale therapist Olena Petrushkevych gave us the ideas for applying a fairytale as an educational instrument.

«Do you really know all the opportunities a fairytale provides? Traditionally, a fairytale is used in education for development of language skills and imagination, or as a form for transferring the knowledge.  In practice, the range of its application is essentially wider. It is crucial that we learn to use the fairytale wisdom correctly».


Ms Olena told us that we can correct certain aspects of a child’s behaviour through a fairytale. In order to do so, we must not only read the fairytale, but fix it symbolically, i.e. draw illustrations, model a character, perform a play. And we can also compose fairytales together with children. All this will increase the fairy effect.
