Academic failure occurs when the primary aims of education are not delivered to the degree that there is an ongoing breakdown in a student’s ability to learn.According to Dr Gordon Harold of the University's School of Psychology, children's experiences at home can have a direct impact on their performance at school. "The study shows what many have long suspected - family factors exert a real influence on children's emotional and behavioral problems, as well as their academic achievement.

Seventh, the researcher made an outline for her to have a guide in arranging her ideas.
