Abstract :
Life skills are psychosocial competencies that help one to deal effectively with the demands and challenges of everyday life. These skills help people to live harmoniously and function efficiently in different roles of family, community, and workforce. The major objective of the study was to assess the life skills of secondary school students. The study was carried out on a sample of 100 students drawn from two strata of government and private CBSE secondary schools. A descriptive survey method was used in the study. The study revealed that CBSE secondary school students have average life skills and private school students were found to have higher life skills compared to government school students. The study emphasizes the role of socio-economic and educational factors on life skills.
