Abstract
Parents' participation in their children's school activities is an important facet of successful education. Children gain better scores and improve in academic achievement when their parents work hand-in-hand with the school. RONNIE MMOTLANE, LOLITA WINNAAR and MBITHI WA KIVILU did a survey on who are the parents that get involved in their children's schools.-
