For Bangladeshi learners gaining proficiency is essential for higher studies in Bangladesh and abroad, in job sectors, and communicating with foreign agencies or international organizations.

Results shows that there are numerous factors responsible for this low attainment and for some of them students are responsible, some of the factors related to poor teaching conditions and some of the causes related to various contextual factors. In conclusion, this study attempts to depict the real scenario of English classes in Bangla medium schools.
