Social and health-related causes and their impact on the level of academic underachievement

The research aims to identify the social and economic reasons that affect academic failure among middle school students from the teachers' perspective, and to develop students mentally, physically, morally and socially, and provide them with the basic level of knowledge and skills that are indispensable for an individual. The research relied on the descriptive analytical approach. The research reached several results, the most important of which are: parents' lack of follow-up of their children at school, the low level of parents' education, and the lack of a suitable study environment at home. Recommendations include: Parents should contact the school to check on their children's educational level, and families should work to provide an appropriate study environment and help students solve their academic problems.
