| dc.description.abstract | The research investigated the Effect of Economic Poverty on the Completion of Secondary Schooling among Students of Nambulu Secondary School in Sironko District. Employing a descriptive research design, the study utilized mixed methods to gather comprehensive data on household income's influence on academic performance and students' economic status on educational aspirations. The findings underscored the significant influence of household income levels on academic performance and the nuanced relationship between economic status and educational aspirations. While supporting existing theories, the study revealed contrasting perspectives and uncertainties among participants, highlighting the need for tailored interventions to support students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. Furthermore, the investigation shed light on the complex interplay of school-related factors and academic performance. While some aspects aligned with expectations, others revealed disparities and contrasting perspectives. These findings emphasize the importance of tailored interventions and further research to address multifaceted school environments' impact on student outcomes. Recommendations drawn from the study's conclusions include investing in diverse learning resources to bridge resource disparities, enhancing teacher-student interactions through training programs, and prioritizing infrastructure improvements to create conducive learning environments. These recommendations aim to support educational practice and policy development at Nambulu Secondary School and similar institutions. | |
