Parents play a crucial role in the success of their children's education, especially during the pandemic and the transition to remote learning. This study highlights that single female parents, who are often the heads of low-income and less-educated families, face significant challenges in providing their children with the necessary online learning resources. Additionally, these parents often lack the skills needed to effectively assist their children with their studies. The situation is further complicated by the growing demands of their unpaid caregiving responsibilities. This article emphasizes the need for an intersectional approach to education policy that goes beyond focusing solely on students. It calls for consideration of all the factors and individuals that influence educational success, including parents. Addressing these issues is essential to create more inclusive and effective education policies in the future.
