With the help of the capability to forecast their level of success, students are given the opportunity to select the courses with subsequent study plans that will be of the greatest benefit to them personally. Because of the availability of this talent, this can now be accomplished. It provides educators and school administrators the chance to keep an eye on students, which, in turn, enables them to offer increased assistance to pupils, combine educational initiatives to produce the best possible outcomes, and forecast the extent to which kids will be able to successfully complete their schooling.

This was because it had the capability of accurately classifying the data. These results are evidence that the data were categorized with a high degree of precision, and they are presented here for your consideration. Throughout the entirety of this investigation, a number of distinct approaches to machine learning, including ensemble, logistic regression, random forest, AdaBoost, and XG Boost, were utilized. These approaches were used to classify the data.
KEYWORDS: school administrators, educational initiatives, student forecasting, ensemble, logistic regression, random forest, AdaBoost, and XG Boost.
