Every person (also the learner) has a need to fulfill his full potential. To be successful in
fulfilling one's potential, the learner needs the accompaniment of an adult, as no person
can reach selfactualisation without this accompaniment. The way in which the adult
(parent) accompanies the learner, is of utmost importance. If the parent commits an
educational error by not putting the educational essences into practice, it can lead to
intrinsic barriers to learning, which manifests as learning problems, or specific
educational needs, in a learner.
Research was conducted to determine the accompaniment role of parents with children
who experience barriers to learning, in Grade 4 - 7, in the Vanderbijlpark district. The
aim was to determine the extent to which parents apply the educational essences to their
children (learners) who experience barriers to learning.
The main conclusion from the research is that the majority of parents do apply some of the
educational essences. It is clear however that some parents omit I neglect to put the
educational essences into practice, or make errors in educating their children.
Recommendations are offered with regard to ways in which parents can apply the
educational essences to their children (learners) who experience barriers to learning as
well as towards further research in this regard. / Thesis (M.Ed.)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2004
