This study delves into the complex issue of adolescent pregnancy and its impact on students’ academic performance in schools. Adolescent pregnancy, defined as pregnancy in a young woman under the age of 20, presents various challenges globally, with significant implications for educational attainment and societal well-being. Factors contributing to adolescent pregnancy include declining age at menarche, socioeconomic status, educational aspirations, and family dynamics. Despite efforts to address this issue, the prevalence of adolescent pregnancy remains high in many countries, particularly in low- and middle-income nations. The consequences of adolescent pregnancy extend beyond individual health, affecting educational outcomes, school attendance, and study habits. Through a comprehensive investigation, this study aims to uncover the effects of adolescent pregnancy on academic performance, attendance, and study habits among early and later adolescents. The findings will contribute valuable insights into the dynamics of adolescent pregnancy within the educational context, informing targeted interventions and support mechanisms for affected students.
