It highlights whether the PO has a positive or negative effect on academic progress, and the social and emotional well-being of SOD. The academic impact of PO programmes is studied through quantitative data that were used to analyse SOD, CAT4, MAP, and Test-1 & -2, along with the survey. It includes three sections that measured the participants' responses to the PO programmes' impact on the academic, social-emotional development of SOD. Thirty-two respondents including subject teachers, learning support teachers, counsellors, and supervisors participated in the survey. To study the effect on social and emotional development, four participants were interviewed after the analysis of the survey data. This study looked into every important detail, and the ultimate conclusion was reached to offer the optimum recommendations. The results revealed that PO programmes were effective in terms of the academic growth and progress of SOD, while the social-emotional well-being depends on many other factors. Numerous recommended PO programmes have to combine with PI support and independent study activities.enpull-out programmes, students of determination, academics, social-emotional developmentDissertationProfessor Eman Gaad
