Abstract	Abstract The second decade of the 21st century witnessed an unprecedented pandemic that has shaken the entire world in a span of a few months. The novel coronavirus COVID-19, which shattered the entire world and was highly contagious with the possibility of causing severe respiratory disease, impacted the government and public health systems quickly. The impacts of the new coronavirus pandemic (SARS-CoV-2) on the population’s mental health are one of the greatest challenges faced by humanity in the twenty-first century. The education sector was also severely impacted by COVID-19. All stakeholders, including learners, teachers, and the government, have been prompted to make several changes in service delivery to ensure that the provision of quality education continues. In this backdrop, the present study was conducted to investigate whether COVID-19-related factors have any significant effect or not on the academic performance of secondary school students. A sample of 200 secondary school students was randomly selected from different government and private secondary schools. Out of the total number of respondents, 100 were selected from the government, and the remaining half were selected from the private schools. The Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scales (DASS), developed by Lovibond and Lovibond in 1995, are administered to measure the level of depression, anxiety, and stress. From the analysis of the data, it is found that COVID-19-induced stress, anxiety, and depression severely and significantly affected the academic achievement of adolescents.
