The following were the major findings of the study; It was discovered that in an attempt to find out whether orphaned learners experienced social problems that could hinder their educational perfom1ance, the teachers were asked questions relating to the orphans' inter-personal relationships with other learners and with teachers. They were also asked to describe the orphaned learners' academic achievement and to suggest the reasons for the academic performances, and to describe their behaviors in the class and to mention how often they were punished and the main reasons for punishment.
