Each One Teach One, Parental involvement and Family Engagement in Jamaica's Education System, Paperback

Each One Teach One: Parental Involvement and Family Engagement in Jamaica's

Education System is a collection of research studies and essays across multiple

educational fields: leadership, psychology, special education, early childhood, literacy

studies, mathematics and teacher education. The contributors to this collection provide

empirical evidence on the state of parental involvement and family engagement in

Jamaica. A team approach has been used in completing the various chapters in which

graduate researchers collaborated with lecturers in their areas of specialization. The

different voices and data from the participants along with relevant literature shape

the dialogue on the importance of home and school collaboration in students' overall

outcomes. Each One Teach One provides critical onto-epistemological frameworks

grounded within the Jamaican context to examine the scope, prevalence, and

effects of parental involvement and family engagement in schooling. The findings,

implications and recommendations can guide policymakers in the formulation of

strategies compatible with the needs of the schools, students and families and provide

indispensable data on how to effectively work together to optimize students' success.

support each other. e examination on parental involvement and family engagement

is current and o ers an extensive amount of new information to its eld. Furthermore,

the methodology on problem solving added a signi cant contribution. e ndings

in this research are new, which also allows for a substantive contribution to existing

knowledge."
