Föräldrars utbildningsnivå : En studie om hur elevernas prestationer som påverkas av föräldrarnas bakgrund

<p>This study is about how students 'performance in school is influenced by parents' educational background. The study has been performed by cooperation with two schools in Stockholm. One class in each school has participated and the students have amongst other questions answered regarding their grades in natural science subjects. To examine whether parents 'educational background affect students' performance, a quantitative survey in the form of poll has been conducted. Even a literature review was conducted in this area to get a clearer picture of how parents' educational background affects the performance of students.</p><p>This study shows that students who have academic parents perform better than students who have not got academically educated parents. This was proved after a comparative study made with regard to students' grades in natural science subjects. Furthermore, it appears that parental involvement is important for a student to perform better in school because parents act as a resource for children's learning.</p>
