The Impact of Parental Involvement on The Academic Success of Their Children

Abstract

This study explores the impact of parental involvement on the academic success of their children, examining the factors that influence the learners and drive them towards academic excellence. It also investigates the factors that hinder them from achieving that excellence. The descriptive approach was adopted, and to achieve the study's objectives, a questionnaire consisting of 12 questions was designed and distributed to a sample of 66 teachers working in some primary schools in the state of Tawz, especially in Tawzar 1 and Tawzar 2. Additionally, a focused interview with parents was conducted, consisting of 11 questions to assess the extent of the impact of parental involvement on their child's academic success.

After the statistical analysis of the study hypotheses and extracting the results, some recommendations were provided. Among these recommendations is the necessity of raising awareness among parents that the phenomenon of the obsession with academic excellence and distinction poses a high risk and negatively affects their children in all aspects. Parents are advised to create suitable conditions and a conducive environment for their children's studies.
