Vol. 2 No. Issue: 3, May, pg. 1345-1376 (2025) (2025): Role of Parental Involvement in Children's Academic Achievement

Parental involvement plays a vital role in shaping children’s academic achievement. Parents serve as the first educators and continue to influence a child’s learning trajectory through active engagement in school activities, support with homework, motivation, and the creation of a conducive learning environment at home. This research paper explores the multifaceted role of parental involvement in the educational success of children, analyzing different dimensions including emotional, social, and academic aspects. The study reviews existing literature, presents empirical findings, and discusses the implications of parental involvement across socioeconomic, cultural, and educational contexts.

The abstract emphasizes how parental involvement enhances student motivation, attendance, self-esteem, and long-term academic outcomes. It highlights the challenges parents face due to economic hardship, lack of educational background, or limited time, and explores strategies to bridge these gaps. The research methodology relies on surveys and analysis of responses from parents, teachers, and students across selected schools. Through data interpretation and comparative analysis, the study identifies strong positive correlations between parental support and children’s academic success. The conclusion reiterates that parental involvement is a significant determinant of academic achievement, calling for school policies and community initiatives to strengthen parent-school partnerships.

Ultimately, the study provides actionable insights for educators, policymakers, and parents themselves to foster an environment where children can thrive academically. The findings not only confirm the existing scholarly consensus but also contribute to context-specific understanding in the surveyed population.
