Education has always played an important role in human development.

Research has found that influences in society are affecting Trinidad and Tobago's youth development. Further research in 1965 explored reasons for educational failure beyond lack of intellectual ability. To improve student grades, teachers need to be more encouraging and make learning exciting for students.
