Abstract

This research was designed for discovering the effect of parental involvement as well as teachers involvement upon the students academic achievement at the secondary level. The research explored the impact of two characteristics of parental involvement i.e. parental communication, and their emotional support, and classroom security, and teachers motivation on students academic achievement. Sample selection was done through stratified random sampling. 1438 students were selected from 10th grade students. Data collection was done through self-developed and validated questionnaires. Multiple regression model, mean and standard deviation were used for the purpose of data analysis. The results indicate that parental communication has emerged as the major indicator of involvement of parents. Parental communication and parental emotional support has profound influence upon the academic achievement of students. Additionally, parental communication and their emotional support have deep positive influence on academic achievement of male students.
