2.1 Theoretical Background of the Study
The importance of parents’ involvement was also seconded by Grace et al (2012) that the impact is real gamey. They said that the most precise prediction of a pupil’s achievement in school is not income or social status, but the extent to which that pupil’s parent is able to produce a home environment that encourage learning and to express high expectations for their children’s achievement and future careers. They point out that involvement, including at ‘home,’ good parenting, helping with homework, talking to teachers, attending school functions, through taking part in school organization. By answering all this last solution is really high in public demonstration where the events are real gamey. It is noted that, the roles of parental encouragement and participation in their child's academic motivate pupils and enhance their public presentation.
The parental encouragements have significant impacts on their children behaviours’ relating to school achievement as defined by different scholars like (Epstein (1995); Finn and Rock (1997); Moss and St. Laurent (2001). The family is, manifestly, a major socializing agent and therefore important in determining the child’s motivation to
achieve success in various areas. Sandven (1975) indicates the family as a keymotive for pupil to excel in academic work as an activating force, a cause or an urge to achieve sound effects and recognition which to some degree accounts to lead on in school. Parents provide as many resources as they can, but this can also be negative to the child’s education. Parents typically do not get involved with their children
unless difficulties arise, which then can contribute to frustration from the parents (Pomerantz and Wang 2005). This is where parents call at school only if summoned to answer some misbehaviour of his/her child.
