One of the important features of effective pedagogical school is developed cooperation with parents. Cooperation represents a joint action and negotiation, which is aimed at finding solutions, and a new, common ground. Cooperation between schools and families, may be traditional and partnership oriented. In what way it will be achieved and placed, depends on the legal regulations, school environment, individual characteristics of teachers, socio-demographic and psychosocial characteristics of the parents. The aim of this study is to determine the level of development of cooperation between the family and school, whether the cooperation is still traditional or has established partnerships between families and schools. The paper is based on the assumption that parents do not participate in decision-making at the school and that the cooperation between family and school in primary schools is still traditional. The results showed that parents are not involved in decision-making at the school, that the cooperation between family and school is still traditional and that is mainly related to parent meetings and informative conversations, without involvement of the partnership.
