Introduction

There is a large body of evidence suggesting that parental involvement benefits children of all ages (Desforges et al, 2003). This covers both home-based and school-based parental involvement, such as listening to children read and supervising homework, as well as parent engagement sessions and parent–teacher meetings (Hornby & Lafaele, 2011).
