Stakeholders’ Views on Parental Involvement in the Schooling of Children in an Urban School: A Case Study

This study examined stakeholders’ views on parental involvement in students’ school experiences at Eagle’s Remedial School (a pseudonym). The school system has a diverse group of students, and stakeholders (such as teachers, parents, and principals) have varied parental involvement perceptions. The interactions between parents and other stakeholders were examined to determine how grounded parental involvement views were. The study examines the research question: How do stakeholders support parental involvement? A qualitative case study design was utilized to explore stakeholders’ and students’ views on parental involvement in school life. The study is significant because the findings can be used by the selected school to implement workshops for parents, teachers, and principals to close the gap between perceptions on parental involvement in students’ school experiences and strategies that parents, and school personnel can adopt to enhance the quality of students’ experiences at school.
