Abstract	In recent years, the term "educational partnership" has been widely accepted by professionals in the field and in the discourse. It emphasizes the goal of establishing well-balanced and cooperative partnerships with parents on an eye-to-eye level. When it comes to political or professional statements, policy reform or shifts in professional practice in early childhood education, there is virtually no sign of public or professional criticism. Thus, the goals and accompanying and possibly negative effects of an intensified cooperation between professionals and parents are usually not discussed in detail. This is where the present study comes in. Its goal is to raise critical questions with respect to current debates on increasing parent-teacher cooperation in ECEC and elementary schools. Basic questions of the study refer to what is actually meant by "educational partnership" and what standards are set in order to establish productive cooperation. From a critical perspective, the study recounts recent research that indicates the effectiveness of intensive cooperation. The goal is to stimulate a renewed discussion of "educational partnerships" that includes deeper empirical investigations of what makes up parent-teacher cooperation, and of what its consequences are for parents, children and professionals. Moreover, this study aims to contribute to ongoing debates on the reproduction of social inequality in education. In order to unveil the complex mechanisms of the reproduction of educational inequality the intersection of family and educational institutions needs a detailed and careful consideration. (Orig.).
