This paper investigates the relationship between social skills and educational adjustment among secondary school students. Social skills play a crucial role in adolescents’ academic and social success, yet there is a need for further understanding of how these skills impact educational outcomes. This study employs both quantitative and qualitative methodologies to explore the correlation between social skill development and educational adjustment. Quantitative measures include standardized tests assessing social competence and educational adjustment, while qualitative data are gathered through interviews and observations to provide a deeper insight into the experiences of students. The findings indicate a significant positive correlation between strong social skills and successful educational adjustment, highlighting the importance of fostering social competence in secondary school settings. Implications for educational practices and recommendations for future research are discussed.
