Summary/Abstract: Constructive resolving of educational problems as well as learning problems is frequently based on theoretical and practical postulates of Pedagogy, Psychology, Sociology, Andragogy and other related sciences. Creative participation of school and parents offers great possibilities and opportunity for improvement of the school and parents and their common participation help the development of democratic and human school trying to establish a dialogue of equality and cooperation with parents. Being partners, teachers and parents are both responsible for development and progress of a child. They both have rights and obligations connecting them and making them responsible. Values that child has accepted in his/her family are the base for any kind of upbringing and schooling. School should start from these attitudes in it educational work especially when family did not contribute or does not realize its primary educational role in adequate way. Individualized approach to the pupil and his/her family, and then systematic approach in understanding relationship within the family of each pupil or student will contribute partnership among parents and school to be developed. Without such approach, pupil remains an isolated individual only. It is useful to know all inadequacies and advantages impacting the motivation for school/parents partnership to be developed properly. Knowledge of inadequacies and advantages will guide us in choosing adequate motivation strategies successfully encouraging parents to cooperate as partners and to participate within (their) children education process. Epstein underlines: ''Partnership is built on mutual confidence and respect requesting time and patience''.
