both qualitative and quantitative approaches and was conducted through descriptive
survey design. The collected data were analyzed at two levels namely thematically

secondary school low achievers. However there were higher effectiveness in private
schools as compared to the public ones (p<0.05).The study further revealed,
numerous challenges hindering effectiveness of the program such as poor teaching
