Abstract:
The goal of the study was to determine how early pregnancy affected school dropout in the Luwero District. Of 330 respondents, 270 provided the researcher with reliable data, which served as the foundation for the study's conclusions. Purposive sampling procedures were utilized by the researcher to gather data, and SPSS was used to evaluate data using quantitative methods. The study's goals were to investigate the link between early pregnancy and school dropout, to determine the effects of early pregnancies on school dropout, and ultimately to identify strategies for minimizing the impact of early pregnancy on school dropout. The study's findings made it evident that while the majority of respondents told the researcher there was a strong correlation between early pregnancies and school dropout, just a small number of respondents gave data indicating that the association is only moderately strong. The study's findings revealed that the majority of respondents told the researcher that family matters were the primary impact of early pregnancy on school dropout, while a small number of respondents said that the majority of those who experience early pregnancy fear being laughed at.
