Twenty teachers were chosen from two schools of low socioeconomic status and low parent involvement in a state in northwestern Mexico. The teachers took part in in-depth interviews and answered an open-ended questionnaire. It was found that the teachers ascribe this low level of involvement to the parents’ lack of interest and sense of responsibility. The teachers do not consider it necessary to implement specific strategies to involve families, and they simply give information and face up to the situation. It is concluded that teachers’ beliefs are an obstacle to parent involvement, and therefore, it is necessary to raise awareness to enable teachers to restate their beliefs on the value of parent involvement in education. El estudio se propuso comprender las creencias de docentes que constituyen barreras para la participación de padres de familia en la educación de sus hijos en las primarias públicas. Se seleccionaron 20 docentes de dos escuelas con bajo nivel socioeconómico y escasa participación de los padres en un estado del noroeste de México. Los docentes participaron en entrevistas a profundidad y contestaron un cuestionario con preguntas abiertas. Se encontró que los docentes atribuyen la baja participación al poco interés y responsabilidad de los padres. Los docentes no consideran necesarias estrategias específicas para involucrar a las familias, y sólo realizan prácticas como informar y confrontar. Se concluye que las creencias de los docentes constituyen barreras para la participación de los padres, por lo que es necesario desarrollar acciones de sensibilización que permitan a los docentes reelaborar sus creencias respecto al valor de la participación de los padres en la educación.
