The Effects of Parental Influences and School Readiness of the Child

AbstractThe specialty literature affirms that school readiness plays a very important role for the subsequent academic success of the child. NEPG proposes an articulate model of the child school readiness, adopting a multilevel approach of the factors which can influence it: the child level, the family, the school and the community in which he belongs. It is obvious that parental involvement during the first school years is reflected in the later school results of the child. The present study aims at analyzing the effects of parental influences (parental style, parental involvement at school and at home) within the context of the beginning of the formal schooling and of the academic success of children
