Abstract:

This research was carried out in order to determine the level of school-family cooperation according to the opinions of the parents and to examine this level according to different variables. The study carried out for this purpose was carried out with the cross-sectional survey method, one of the quantitative research models. The study sample consists of 408 parents of students from different school types and levels in Ankara. “School-family cooperation standards scale” was used to collect data. In the analysis of the data, the level of school-family cooperation of the parents was determined by making descriptive statistical calculations. As a result of the analyses, parents' views on implementing school-family cooperation were found to be moderate. When the levels of school-family cooperation were examined, no significant difference was found in general terms according to the parenting type, age, education level, income level, number of children and the number of children attending school. However, when school-family cooperation levels are examined in the context of sub-dimensions, it can be said that mothers are more positive than fathers regarding power sharing, and young parents are more positive than the elderly in supporting student success and power sharing dimensions. In addition, it can be said that individuals with high educational status evaluate the power sharing dimension negatively compared to the parents with low academic levels, and the level of school-family cooperation in the power sharing dimension of the parents with high income level decreases.
