Abstract: The document presents a comprehensive study on the factors affecting English language proficiency among G.C.E. O/L students in Northern Province, Sri Lanka. It delves into the significance of English proficiency in today's globalized world and identifies the unique challenges faced by students in this region, including inadequate resources, lack of motivation, and limited language exposure. The study also highlights the disparities in English language education within different zones of the Northern Province and emphasizes the need for targeted interventions. Through a mix of quantitative and qualitative research methods, the study aims to analyze these factors deeply to propose actionable strategies for improving English language education outcomes. It underscores the importance of enhancing teacher training, revising curriculum to be more interactive and communicative, and ensuring equitable access to resources and opportunities for language practice. The document calls for a collaborative effort among policymakers, educators, and the community to address the root causes of the lack of proficiency and to empower students with the necessary skills for academic and professional success in a global context.
