Abstract
There is extensive and convincing research evidence to show the positive impact that successful parental involvement in education can have on students' achievement (e.g., Alton-Lee, 2003; Bull, Brooking, & Campbell, 2008; Epstein, 1995; Jeynes, 2007; Mitchell, 2010). Advantages for students include improved learning and behavior outcomes, increased positive motivation, and more regular attendance at school (La Rocque, Kleiman, & Darling, 2011) Studies have also shown that these advantages carry over once students leave school in the form of higher rates of post secondary education enrolment (SRI International, 2005).
