In order to carry out the study, a qualitative approach was chosen. through the techniques of analysing documents and interviewing the school management, teachers teachers, fifth-graders and their parents. The choice of informants of the study was based on a purposive sample of 24 elements, of which one (01) principal headmaster; one (01) pedagogical assistant headmaster; two (02) teachers; 10 students, five (5) of whom were with low and five (05) with high pedagogical performance and 10 parents and guardians (Parents/EE). The data was collected at the public Kurhula Primary School, located in the city of Maputo, in the Maxaquene-C neighbourhood. After collecting and analysing the data, we found that the level of involvement of parents/EEs in their children's school life, the pupil's attitudes towards studying and the teacher's actions are the main determinants of the educational performance of pupils in the fifth grade at EPCK. The data shows that these factors are related to the level of consolidation, willingness to assimilate content and mobilisation of mobilisation of students for lessons, which in turn influences the pace of learning and mastery of the competences pre-established in the teaching plan (reading, writing and calculating). Therefore, as the main institution mediating the education and training of the individual, we suggest that the school to innovate its teaching methods in order to motivate students to actively participate in the teaching and learning process; mitigate the impact of negative factors on the learning and and performance of students, in their specificities, and effectively apply strategies to mobilise parents and guardians to participate actively in their children's school life.school life.
