Abstract

Education plays a crucial role in shaping individual development and societal progress. However, tribal communities in India, particularly in regions like Bankura district of West Bengal, continue to face significant educational challenges. This study explores parental involvement and attitudes toward education among tribal communities in Bankura. Using a purposive sampling method, data were collected to understand the extent of parental participation in children's education and their perceptions regarding schooling. The findings reveal that although parents recognize the importance of education, their involvement remains limited due to socio-economic constraints, illiteracy, and cultural factors. The study highlights the need for culturally responsive interventions to enhance parental engagement and improve educational outcomes among tribal children.
