A Study on the Primary School Teachers’ View upon the Essential Factors Determining the (Non)Involvement of the Family in the Education of Primary School Students in Romania

Abstract

The issue of identifying and hierarchizing the categories of factors which determine the degree of the family's involvement in the education of students is extremely topical. All the more so as we are referring to primary school students, challenged by their first authentic school experience at an early age. The aim of our study is to draw the radiography of the categories of factors which determine the level of involvement of the family in the education of the primary school student, in Romania. The method we have used is the questionnaire-based inquiry. We intend to present the results of the investigation upon a sample of teachers from primary education, in the urban and rural environments. Our results materialize in the identification, analysis and systematization of the factors which determine the level of involvement of the family in the education of the primary school student, in Romania. We shall further design lines of formative action involving parents, which may enhance the degree of the family's involvement in the education of the primary school student and render this process more efficient.
