In the context of secondary school pupils, the purpose of this research is to assess the effectiveness of life skills training that is being delivered via activities. Communication, problem-solving, decision-making, and greater self-awareness were some of the essential life skills that were emphasized throughout the training program. There was a total of ninety students that took part in this research. Using an approach that included both a pre-test and a post-test, the data was evaluated in order to discover fluctuations in the students' capabilities. Activity-based learning has been shown to be an effective method for enhancing students' life skills, as seen by the results, which demonstrate a considerable increase in a number of different life skill areas.
