Abstract
The study investigated parental factors as a predictor for toddlers’ early enrolment in schools in Ilorin Metropolis, Kwara State. A descriptive survey design was adopted for the study. Five research questions raised to guide the study. The population of the study was based on 300 parents selected across the sampled schools in Ilorin Metropolis, using simple random sampling techniques. A researcher self-constructed questionnaire titled “Parental Factors as a Predictor of Toddlers’ Early Enrolment in School Questionnaire (PFPTEESQ)” was used to get information from the respondents. The instrument was validated using content validity (0.74), while the reliability was conducted using Crombach Alpha which yielded an index value of 0.81. Mean and standard deviation was used to answer the research questions raised. The findings revealed that all the parental factors such as parents’ careers, educational background, cultural values, family size, and socio-economic status serve as predictors of toddlers’ early enrolment in school in Ilorin Metropolis, Kwara State. It was recommended that, parents should ensure; they have schedule time for interactive learning at home, such as reading and problem-solving activities, to compensate for limited availability during work hours; they seek guidance from teachers, early childhood specialists, and community programs about the importance of early education; they maintain an active role in their child’s moral and ethical upbringing alongside formal education; and they establish a structured home learning environment where older siblings can assist younger ones with basic educational activities.
