Abstract	This review paper has discussed the multiple impacts of socioeconomic status on the educational experiences of school students. This paper has synthesized this review paper by going through multiple databases such as Google Scholar, ERIC, JSTOR, PubMed, and Semantic Scholar. This paper has analysed multiple aspects of students' overall learning experiences, i.e., conceptualizing SES in educational research, academic achievement, access to educational resources, student motivation and academic engagement. The findings systematically prove that the lower SES is the greatest indicator of a lower level of educational results. It primarily comes from limited teaching and learning aids, an increased level of learnings problems, lower parental educational expectations, and attendance at under-resourced schools. Further reviewing the literature, the researcher finds that there exists a great impact of mediating and moderating variables such as cognitive stimulation, academic self-efficacy, teacher-student relationships, and school leadership. The review, lastly, gives policy recommendations and interventions to reduce the discrimination of the gap between Socioeconomic level and learning achievement
