The Influence of Parental Involvement on Academic Success in Primary Schools

Abstract

Parental involvement plays a crucial role in shaping the academic success of primary school children. This paper investigates the impact of parental engagement on students' academic performance, emotional development, and overall well-being in primary schools. A comprehensive review of existing literature highlights various forms of parental involvement, such as direct support in school activities, homework help, and fostering a positive home learning environment. Furthermore, the paper examines factors that contribute to effective parental involvement and challenges that hinder active participation. The findings underscore the importance of a collaborative relationship between parents, teachers, and school administrators in enhancing student achievement.
