This research was motivated by the phenomenon of low learning interest among students at SDN 227/VIII Mekar Kencana, Tebo Regency, which is reflected in the lack of participation in learning activities, weak motivation, and minimal support from family and school. Learning interest is considered a fundamental factor that determines students’ academic success, as it encourages active engagement, consistency, and perseverance in the learning process. This study aimed to identify the internal and external factors influencing students’ learning interest and analyze the role of schools and families in shaping it.The research employed a qualitative case study approach with data collected through observation, interviews, and documentation involving principals, teachers, students, and parents. Data were analyzed interactively through stages of reduction, presentation, and conclusion.The findings revealed that external factors have a more dominant influence than internal ones. Lack of family support, monotonous teaching methods, and limited school facilities emerged as the main barriers to students’ learning interest. On the other hand, students’ intrinsic motivation and curiosity appeared when they received positive encouragement from teachers and families. Thus, improving learning interest requires synergy among students, parents, and schools through conducive learning environments, innovative teaching methods, and active parental involvement.
