Abstract

This study aims to find out how the roles of parents and educators are formed, as well as the obstacles faced in the development of non-academic achievement of students with special needs in extraordinary schools. This study uses a qualitative research method with a case study type. The subjects of this study are parents and educators. Data collection uses interviews, observation, and documentation techniques with researchers as the main instruments. The data analysis methods used are Miles, Huberman, and Saldana, which include the process of data collection, data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions drawn. Data validity is used to triangulate data and conduct member checking. The results of the study show that parents play an important role in the development of children's non-academic achievements. This role is shown through several involvements, namely parenting (understanding children's characteristics, providing direction, motivation, and creating an environment that supports children's achievements), communicating (communicating with the school about children's development and needs, in non-academic fields), volunteering (providing emotional support, motivation, and being actively involved in children's non-academic activities), learning at home (accompanying children to learn and practice at home and doing collaboration with educators to provide supervision), decision making (decision-making related to children's non-academic achievement through collaboration with schools and external parties), and collaboration with community (collaboration with schools and communities to support children's activities and development). The role of educators includes several points, namely Mentor (providing extracurricular programs and collaboration with external coaches to assist students in the development of students' non-academic achievements), facilitators (providing resources, training facilities, and learning methods tailored to students' needs), collaborators (collaborating with parents of fellow educators, external institutions such as NPCs and coaches to support student training and development),  and motivator (providing motivation, emotional support, and individualized guidance to students).
