CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION This Chapter presents the background, problem statement, purpose specific objectives, research questions, scope and the significance of the study. 1.1 Background of the Study The issue of pupils, performance at schools has been of concern ever since modern education was introduced. Many countries have come to realize that pupils are the heart of educational process and that without good performance; all innovations in education are doomed to failure. There is a wide dissatisfaction with the current situation of schooling in many countries and parents come in for the share of the blame. This is because majority of parents involve their children in garden and other domestic work. This makes pupils have limited time with their teachers and no time for revision, therefore, affecting their performance. The Uganda Primary School Curriculum (1999) clearly spells out what Primary Education is. It also spells out the broad aims and objectives of Primary Education. The Curriculum in both Volume One and Volume Two was designed to address the National Aim of Education as specifically stated in the Government White Paper on the Education Policy Review Commission Report (1992). Therefore, all school efforts should be aimed at high quality pupils' learning. Parents as active stakeholders in schools should ensure that they are cooperative, participate fully in school activities, provide children with essential needs, check pupils' work, encourage and enforce good behaviour among pupils and to consult with school authorities to foster good performance of their children.
