Abstract: This study explores the role of family dynamics in shaping the educational attainment of tribal children in the Dakshin Dinajpur district of West Bengal.By employing qualitative secondary research methods, the paper synthesizes data from various articles, reports, and academic journals to understand how factors such as parental education, household income, family structure, cultural practices, and gender roles impact tribal children's education.The findings indicate that family environment significantly influences educational participation and achievement, often compounding the barriers already posed by socio-economic and infrastructural limitations.The paper concludes with policy recommendations to mitigate these challenges and highlights the need for culturally sensitive and family-centric educational reforms.
