Abstract

 Social changes at the global level, changes in the economic system, the changed structure of the need for professional staff, as well as the process of forming the European educational space, inevitably bring with them changes in the structure of the educational system of our country. Since the demands in the field of educational qualifications are increasing almost every day in modern society, there is pressure on the individual to achieve the highest possible level of education in order to acquire a certain (more favorable) social position. However, the condition for that must be equal educational opportunities, which in no case must be only formal, but it is necessary to create a positive climate in which socio-economic factors that can lead to unequal educational outcomes are identified and removed. The aim of this paper was to determine whether the socio-economic status of a student's family has an impact on the quality of their studies and the level of achievement, and if so, to what extent it is represented. On that occasion, the obtained results showed that the socioeconomic status of the student's family has a relevant impact on the level of their academic achievements, to a large extent.
