Abstract

Collaboration between parents and teachers in the education phase is crucial because primary school-age chil-dren still spend a lot of time at home with their parents. This study aims to examine the dimensions of the role of parents and teachers in the quality of education in both public and private primary schools. Subsequently, this research will explore the factors that significantly impact the quality of education and draw comparisons between public and private schools. Ten school principals, 60 teachers, and 1,168 parents from 10 Indonesian schools (5 public schools and five private schools) were among the total participants. The study results show that the difference between public and private schools lies in the role of the teacher. The role of parents is where the two schools share similarities. This study emphasizes the crucial role of collaboration between teachers and parents in enhancing educational quality in primary schools. © 2024, University of Bologna. All rights reserved.
