According to Aldhafri’s research (2011), certain parenting styles have relation with children's school well-being. The present research is carried out in order to consider the concepts of school well-being and parenting, and examine the correlation between these two.

The means which were used are: a) the questionnaire of school well-being which includes 8 questions and b) the EMBU-C questionnaire, for the second variant of parenting. The results which emerged out of the statistical analysis show that school well-being is meanly depended on the students’ school performance. Adolescents’ school well-being is related to maternal emotional warmth and paternal rejection. In terms of gender, girls reported slightly higher levels of school well-being, and the unemployment of both parents seemed to affect students' school well-being negatively. Variables such parents’ educational level and divorced parents are not related with the students' school well-being. The necessity of enhancing the school well-being of adolescent students through programs of prevention and intervention is under discussion.
