Abstract	The present study examines teacher efficacy and educational outcomes in secondary tribal schools of West Bengal through a socio-educational perspective. The research aims to analyze the relationship between teachers’ instructional effectiveness and students’ academic performance in tribal educational settings. A quantitative research design was adopted, and data were collected from 300 secondary school teachers using a structured questionnaire. Statistical techniques such as mean, standard deviation, correlation, regression, and t-test were used for data analysis. The findings revealed that teacher efficacy significantly influences educational outcomes, including academic achievement, classroom participation, attendance, and learning motivation among tribal students. The study also identified socio-educational factors such as infrastructure, parental support, and socio-economic conditions as important determinants of teaching effectiveness. The research highlights the need for strengthening teacher competency, institutional support, and inclusive educational policies to improve tribal education systems in West Bengal.
