A lot of researchers have tried to find the relations between parental involvement in educational process and their children's success at school, their aspirations about their future career choice, and eventual behavioural problems. The paper presents the research carried out among 205 children of the fourth class of eight-year primary school and the fifth class of nine-year primary school. We investigated the factor structure (types) of parental involvement in education of their children, and its relation to child's gender, academic achievements and parental education. The Questionnaire about parental involvement - for primary-school children was used. The results showed that involvement has to be studied in relation to gender, school success and parental education level. Some types of involvement are more typical for girls than for boys, for more academically successful children than for less successful children, and for children of more educated parents than for children of less educated parents.
