Systematic Review on Parental Involvement in secondary Schools

Abstract

Parental involvement in education has been a popular issue for a long time and covers various aspects. Using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) method, this systematic review collects documents from databases and filters each document in accordance with established procedures. As a result, a total of twenty documents were analyzed and discussed in this paper. Four key themes were successfully obtained, namely parent relationship with teacher or principal or school, SES relationship with students’ achievement, parental support and benefits of parental engagement towards academic attainment. In conclusion, studies on parental involvement are still ongoing, and various aspects can be investigated to see how they relate to parental involvement in education.
