Abstract	Innovative techniques and tools need to be developed for the sustainable development of society, which is possible only when students are provided with quality science education. One way to ensure that school students are experiencing quality science education is to study students' academic achievement in science. The present study used a standardised tool – the Science Achievement Test (by Ali Imam, Gyan Pratap Singh and Shiventra Pratap Singh, 2017) published by the National Psychological Corporation, Agra, to measure science academic achievement. The secondary-level students of Thoubal District, Manipur, constituted the targeted population. A sample of 387 students was selected using Simple Random Sampling Technique. It was found that secondary school students have average academic achievement in science and that female students score higher than male students. Therefore, different innovative ways of teaching science are required to improve the quality of education for a particular area.
