- <p>Urban home ownership is increasingly seen as a significant factor influencing various aspects of life in urban settings, particularly education attainment among residents. The research employs a mixed-methods approach involving both quantitative survey data collection through structured interviews with parents and qualitative analysis of focus group discussions. Data was collected from a representative sample of households across Accra's urban centers. During the study period, homeownership was found to correlate positively with primary school enrollment rates by 18% compared to non-homeowners. Parents who own their homes reported higher levels of parental engagement in their children's education, such as assisting with homework and attending parent-teacher meetings more frequently. The findings suggest that urban home ownership can serve as a catalyst for improving educational outcomes among Ghanaian families in Accra. Policy makers should consider implementing targeted programmes aimed at increasing homeownership opportunities among low-income families to enhance their children's access to quality education.
