Abstract
Learning is complex; it begins at birth and continues throughout life. Parents are the first teacher and role models for their children and therefore have a strong influence on their learning. Yet studies continue to show that many parents are not aware of the importance they play in their child’s education and have a limited understanding of their role in their children’s learning. Parent’s relationship with children from an early age has been found to equate with better outcomes what parents do is more important than who they are for children’s early development. Evidence indicates that positive parent’s child relationship continues to have a significant effect on achievement. IT has a positive effect on children’s achievement even when the influence of background factors such as social class and family size have been taken into account. Parental engagement is a powerful lever for raising achievement in school, where parents and teachers work together to improve learning the gains in achievements are significant. Parents have the greatest influence on the achievement of children through supporting their support of learning within the environment that makes the maximum difference to achievement, parental engagement is positively influenced by the child’s level of aspiration, the higher level of aspiration the move parents get involved so parents appear to have an important opportunity to influence their children’s level of aspiration though the influence may be not of be as great as traditionally believed.
