Abstract

This study focuses on school-going children’s educational performance of working and non- working mothers. Factors including parents’ highest level of education and their profession, family income, family size and the number of school-going siblings in the family were considered as the explanatory variables of educational performance. Based on the primary data collected through a random sample survey of the students from two schools in the Chittagong University campus in Bangladesh and applying the econometric technique, the study found that mothers’ level of education and family income have a significantly positive impact on students’ academic outcome. Of course, the mothers’ employment status has a negative impact except those who are employed in teaching profession. Thus, this study likes to suggest a policy implication that teaching might be an ideal profession for mothers, which plays a vital role on their children’s educational performance than the other professions.
