BARRIERS HAMPERING HOME-SCHOOL RELATIONSHIP AT SECONDARY SCHOOL LEVEL

Abstract

Parent-school collaboration is collectively referred to as the "home school relationship." Here, kids live comfortably and in accordance with their own preferences. In partnership with the school, they share ideas about how best to support the children' academic progress and daily classroom experiences. The Home-School Relationship provides information about what the school expects from homes and vice versa. Their effectiveness is based on the parental support and the home role that parents play in the school. Knowing the current state of the relationship between parents and schools, comprehending the impact of parent-teacher conferences on children's academic achievement, examining the obstacles in the home-school relationship, and making recommendations were the main goals of the study. Six sampled districts' students and parents answered a series of questionnaires to provide the primary data. One-way ANOVA and the Chi-square goodness of fit test were used to evaluate the data. Research has shown that consistent parent-teacher conferences have a significant impact on pupils' overall academic achievement. They did, however, believe that there are certain obstacles that impede the home-school interaction, such as the parents' hectic schedules, poverty, and attitude toward their children. It was suggested that the concerned department send out a circular letter stating that parents are required to attend the school once a week. Additionally, it was advised that parents provide their kids the attention they need when it comes to school-related issues, as this will help the kids' academic performance.
