Abstract

This study investigated the impact of classroom practices, teaching methods, and school
management on students’ academic performance in secondary schools. Guided by objectives
such as examining students’ study habits, evaluating the effectiveness of teaching strategies,
and assessing the role of school leadership, the research employed a descriptive design using
questionnaires for students, teachers, and head teachers. Data was analyzed through both
qualitative and quantitative methods. The findings indicated that regular revision,
participatory teaching methods, and effective administrative practices positively influenced
student achievement, while challenges such as insufficient learning resources and
overcrowded classrooms hindered progress. The study concluded that enhanced collaboration
among students, teachers, and administrators plays a key role in improving academic
outcomes, and recommended improved classroom engagement, teacher training, and
equitable distribution of learning materials.
