Abstract
Academic achievement is assuming greater importance day by day, one reason for this is the tremendous growth of student’s population and competition. It forms the main basis of admission, promotion in a class, obtaining degree and getting job. For that there is a tremendous pressure on students to earn good grades. Home environment has a very important role in this regards. So far as the education of the child is concerned home is the first agency and parents act as a first educator. It is what parents do in the home that counts for learning development of children. The main objectives of the topic are to find out the significant impact of home environment on academic achievement of tribal region secondary school students. A sample size of 300 Boys and 300 Girls total 600 Class-IX Students were selected and taken up for the study. Purposive and Simple random sampling method has been used by the researcher for selecting the samples. Home Environment Inventory developed by Dr.Karuna Shankar Mishra and Classroom Achievement Test developed by Dr.P.K Naik was used for the study. It has been found that, there is a significant impact of home environment on academic achievement of tribal region secondary school students, but no significant mean difference of academic achievement among tribal region boys and girls secondary school students is found.
