There is growing interest in promoting parental involvement as a strategy for improving the quality of education and making the schools more accountable to the community. Sponsored by the Quality Education Fund , Prof. Esther Ho Sui Chu of the Department of Educational Administration and Policy launched a project to explore home-school cooperation in Hong Kong. The project aimed at teaching teachers and parents the theories and practices of such cooperation, with a focus on the mobilization of human, social, and economic capital in parental involvement and how they work for the improvement of education quality. In 2001, the project received another RGC grant to develop an effective model of parental involvement in schools. The complexity of parent involvemen t will be analysed through a series of ethnographic case studies. A multilevel and longitudinal surve y will also be conducted to look for patterns of and causal relationships in parental involvement i n primary schools.
