  • Abstract:
  • This study investigated the influence of social economic disparities (SED) on educational access and academic outcomes (EE) among students in Kerala, employing a mixed-methods approach that included both quantitative and qualitative data collection. A sample of approximately 500 students from varied socio-economic backgrounds was analyzed through structured surveys and semi-structured interviews with educators and parents. The correlation analysis yielded a strong positive relationship (r = 0.67) between SED and EE, indicating that as social economic disparities increased, educational equity tended to improve. The regression model further confirmed that SED had a statistically significant impact on education equity, explaining around 44.89% of the variance in the dependent variables. These findings highlighted the critical role of addressing socio-economic factors to enhance student engagement and academic performance. To improve education equity, it was recommended that policymakers implement targeted initiatives, such as increased funding for underprivileged schools and resources for disadvantaged students. Additionally, further research was suggested to explore other factors affecting educational equity, including community support and access to technology. Collaborative efforts among educational institutions, government agencies, and community organizations were deemed essential to creating a more equitable educational landscape for all students.
