Abstract The research examined the connection among parenting beliefs and styles with regards to academic performance of learners. Information was collected from forty-nine (49) parents of school-aged learners enrolled in secondary education concerning their parenting practices and their children’s academic results. To analyze the gathered data, Pearson r and multiple regression analysis were employed. The results indicated that factors like parental involvement, completion of homework, amongst others significantly contributed to the variance in grade point averages. Also, it was discovered that authoritative parenting was found to have a positive and noteworthy relationship with both rational and irrational parenting beliefs. It was also seen that irrational parenting beliefs were positively and significantly connected with the completion of homework. It was recommended that school counselors take into account the sway of parenting on learner’s achievement in developing academic programmes.
