Introduction

Parent are often faced with different challenges that hinder them from meeting the learner’s
need. They include insufficient time,career or job type,level of education, home environment and many
more cases also discussing the academic progress of the child. Insufficient parental involvement may
lead to poor performance of the child academically (K.N.E.C Report 2006). Parents from private schools
have been found to be more involved than parents in public schools, in areas such as attending
academic clinic day, parents meeting, paying fees. While in public schools this is taken as extra expenses.

The parents from public schools tend to be reluctant to exposed varied learning opportunities.
This affects their learning skill caused by various factors such as pooe parental involvement as reported
by research done by Kenya National Examination (KNEC 2009) on learner’s achievement. This common
problem found in the results examined by Kangeta Divisional Evaluation tests results analysis. A
difference performance ha also been noted between the public schools record a lower mean grade
compared to private schools.

We need to study the Parental Involvement and Academic Performance of Grade 11 HUMSS
students of Raymundo T. Tongson National High School (School Year 2019-2020). As the parental
involvement influences the academic performance of Grade 11 HUMSS students. The home
environment, parent-school communication, education activities both at home and at school.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

This chapter reviews literature on Parental involvement and its influence on academic
performance of Grade 11 HUMSS students. The literature is presented under the following sub-
headings; home environment, parent- school communication, educational activities both at home and at
school. Finally, the chapter presents the theoritical and conceptual framework of the study. Parental
involvement is defined as the level of participation that a parent has in the child’s education and school.
many parents are tremendously involved, often volunteering to help in their child’s classroom activities,
communicating well with their child’s teachers, assisting with homework and understanding their child’s
individual academic strengths and weaknesses. Unfortunately , there are also many parents who are not
directly involved with their child’s education.

Many school have program aimed at increasing parental involvement such as games and sports,
home activities, and assorted opportunities for volunteers. This has been studied in USA and African
countries like Nigeria and Uganda (UNESCO 2000). Southwest educational development laboratory
(SEDL), found out that, when schools, families, and community groups work together to support
learning, children tend to do better in school, stay in school longer and like school (Kurdek, fine and
sinclair 1995). The report a synthesis of research on parental involvement over the pass ground, student
with involved parents are more likely to; earn higher grades and test scores, and and enroll in higher-
level programs, be promoted, pass their classes, and earn credits, attend school regularly, have better
social skills, how improved behaviour, and adopt well to school (SEDL 2002).

 CHAPTER V

Summary of findings

The study clearly shows that the parental involvement has a profound impact on student’s
achievement. As parental involvement increases students achievement increases too. As the study
confirmed a good foundation at home positively affects on how they perform at school. The parents
showed more of an interest in their child’s education were able to provide more support and their
children earned higher grades.

Conclusion

The academic achievement of the students depends upon the cooperation between the parents
and school. It will take more time and strong effects to create the partnership among the parents,
school and the students. Severe efforts should be taken from both sides to maintain strong partnership.
This study was able to prove that parental involvement directly affects students achievement in a
positive way.
