Abstract: This research delves into the educational landscape in Maya City Secondary Schools, focusing on the outcomes of the Grade 12 National Examination through a mixed-method case study approach. It scrutinizes student performance in different modalities and fields of study while pinpointing factors that contribute to low pass rates and high failure rates. The findings underscore that the regular mode boasts the highest number of students who passed the exam in the natural and social sciences. Conversely, neither Night nor Private modalities yield any passing students in the field of natural sciences. Gender-based performance disparities emerge, revealing male students' consistent outperformance, especially within the private modality. Most alarmingly, the research disclosed that the Maya City Secondary Schools' low average pass rate of 2.35%, significantly below the national average. The study stresses the urgency of addressing issues that contribute to poor academic performance at the individual, institutional, and systemic levels.
