PARENTS’ ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ENGLISH IN THE PRIMARY SCHOOL: THE CASE OF BOURIK SCHOOL

Abstract

This thesis examines the views of Algerian parents regarding teaching the English language to their children in primary school. The aim is to evaluate parents' attitudes towards foreign language practices within the family setting. Additionally, it seeks to identify strategies for parents to facilitate their children's early acquisition of a second language. The findings indicated that parents possess a significant inclination for their offspring to acquire proficiency in a foreign language. They perceive it as a means to enhance their children's prospects and cultivate valuable skills, rather than only seeking social status.
