Parental Awareness and Support in the Implementation of the MATATAG Curriculum

This study explored parents' awareness and support for the implementation of the MATATAG Curriculum. Using a qualitative-descriptive research design, semi-structured interviews were conducted with selected parent participants to gather in-depth insights into their understanding, concerns, and suggestions. Findings revealed that while some parents—especially those with teaching backgrounds—demonstrated awareness of the curriculum’s goals, many remained unaware of its core purpose and features. Participants expressed a strong willingness to support its implementation, provided they receive adequate resources such as brochures, seminars, and instructional materials. The study underscores the need for more effective communication strategies and greater stakeholder engagement to foster collaborative support between home and school. It concludes with recommendations to enhance parental involvement through accessible information dissemination and parent-focused learning initiatives.
