To prevent early school leaving and promote success schools need to develop strategies and activities that involve teachers, parents and pupils. A profitable relationship between school and family can lead to a common objective, namely how to help children learn, become good and responsible individuals and successful citizens.
The cooperation between schools and families is recognized as an efficient way to help the students to get better results at school, develops a positive attitude towards the school as an institution and improves the quality of family life.
Schools, which policy includes the engagement of parents are much more effective, but it is also important to be aware that cooperation between these two institutions is not always an easy process.

These programs have been implemented in schools and are aimed mainly to contribute to greater parental involvement in the learning process, promote the well-being of families, prevent risky behaviours, promote school success and prevent school dropout.
