Figure 14. Conceptual framework of the relationship between parenting style/practice and
education related outcomes (achievement, engagement, ESL)

A better understanding of the role of parenting style in preventing ESL
might help parents better understand how to motivate and encourage their
children’s/adolescents’ educational aspirations and support their success at
school in order to stop ESL. It may also help school professionals who work
in multi-partner ESL prevention teams to understand the importance of
cooperation with parents in ESL prevention and all other school profes-
sionals to develop ESL prevention programmes for parents. The relation-
ship between parenting style and ESL also informs policy-makers about the
importance of systematic cooperation between school and parents.

Methodology
The article is based on a review of the literature that involved searching in
the PsycINFO, ERIC, Proquest, Science Direct and Google scholar search
databases. Key words used in the literature search were family factors for
early school leaving, parenting styles, home environment, school perfor-
mance, school achievements, parental beliefs, parental behaviours, school
dropout, predictors for early school leaving etc. For the purposes of this ar-
ticle, we chiefly considered scientific papers, some online scientific books
and study reports.
