The current study indicates that secondary kids have high expectations from their parents in terms of parental participation. At the secondary school level, students expect the greatest amount of parental motivational participation, followed by emotional, academic, and financial involvement. Compared to males, girls have higher expectations for parental participation. The current study indicates that, rather than academic achievement, students' expectations of parental engagement are more closely connected with their academic self-concept in secondary school, based on the strength of the association. Moreover, there exists a strong correlation between academic achievement and the assumption of solely emotional parental participation. Conversely, the anticipation of parental motivational participation, followed by emotional and academic involvement, is directly linked to academic self-concept. There is no correlation found between secondary pupils' academic achievement and academic self-concept and their expectations of parental financial engagement.
