Home factors related to poor academic performance in North West primary schoolsMonyela, Esther Diboaneng 11 1900 (has links)
A literature and an empirical study were undertaken to investigate home factors affecting the
academic performance of a group of learners in three primary schools in the Brits district.
From the literature it became evident that the early years of an individual's life are critical for
development, especially cognitive development. Parents, as a child's primary educators have an
important role to play in their child's cognitive development. By establishing a
challenging and stimulating environment in which the child is exposed to a variety of
experiences, the parents can enhance their child's cognitive development and by implication
his/her later academic performance. Various other factors such as parental involvement,
expectations, parenting style and home background were found to affect a child's academic
performance.
In the empirical study a group of academic achievers and underachievers were compared with regards
to early cognitive stimulation received, degree of parental involvement and the quality of
their homes. / Psychology of Education / M.Ed. (Specialisation in Guidance and Counselling)
