Abstract

Based on a study conducted in 2012, reports indicate that over half of teachers expressed a strong inclination to decrease the amount of time they dedicated to disciplining students during the school day. One of the main motivations for selecting the teaching profession was to support the educational growth and progress of our students. According to the study, student behaviour was found to have a positive influence on academic achievement. In particular, Arab students demonstrate strong academic accomplishments. Contrary to popular belief, age does not have a substantial impact on students' academic performance. However, it is worth noting that there is a noticeable difference in academic achievement between males and females, with females tending to have lower scores. It is possible that the higher average academic achievement among males is a result of females being interviewed more frequently. Furthermore, there is a notable statistical significance at a 10% level indicating that students who are taught in English outperform those who are taught in Hindi in terms of academic achievement. One possible reason for this could be their ability to obtain books of excellent quality from the market. When it comes to academic performance, students in urban areas demonstrate a clear advantage over their rural counterparts.
