Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2025, Vol 34, Issue 7
Abstract
Family-school partnerships play a critical role in fostering student success by enhancing academic performance and socio-emotional development. This study focuses on developing the Edu-Engagement Framework, an outcome-based family-school partnership program, to strengthen collaboration among parents, teachers, and the broader community. Utilizing a developmental research design, the study gathered data from 70 public elementary school teachers and 70 parents/guardians in the DepEd Division of Cadiz City through surveys and evaluations. The framework underwent validation by Learning Resource Management System (LRMS) evaluators to assess its process design, instructional quality, and technical aspects. Findings revealed that 92% of schools lacked functional School Governing Councils, highlighting the need for stronger family-school collaboration. Teachers and parents identified communication, shared decision-making, and parental involvement as key factors in effective partnerships. The results indicated that while communication and participation were rated highly, there were challenges in recognizing the role of families and fostering collaborative decision-making. Additionally, teachers and parents expressed the need for more structured engagement programs to adapt to the MATATAG curriculum reforms and ensure equitable learning opportunities. The study concludes that strengthening family-school partnerships requires clear communication, inclusive decision-making, and sustainable engagement strategies. The proposed Edu-Engagement Framework provides a structured approach to fostering stakeholder collaboration and enhancing the overall effectiveness of school initiatives. Future research should explore the long-term impact of the framework on student outcomes and its adaptability across different educational settings.
