Higher education institutions gain significant advantages through mentorship because it strengthens self-assurance while boosting professional competencies and providing career guidance. The current educational landscape of Sindh demonstrates almost no implementation of mentorship programs operates within the Elementary Colleges of Education. This quantitative research examines academic success due to mentorship effects by investigating Government Elementary Colleges of Education in Taluka Khairpur. For this purpose, 120 students were selected through a simple random technique. The current research employed survey methodology by using an adapted structured questionnaire to obtain student perceptions about their mentorship experience. Student academic achievement benefits substantially from mentorship, according to the study results majority of the students reported positive experiences with their mentor. The research data demonstrates how mentoring helps students build their confidence as well as their competence and academic motivation levels. The research findings present vital information which mentors can use to create successful programs that boost student achievement results. This study offers valuable insight for educational institutions to prioritise formal Mentorship programs and establish regular feedback mechanisms to support students' academic growth. Additionally, fostering a culture of trust and open communication between mentors and mentees is crucial in maximising the benefits of Mentorship.</em></p> Aimer Soomro Dr. Firdous Bugti Kainaat Soomro Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of Educational Research and Social Sciences Review (JERSSR) https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/ 2025-03-25 2025-03-25 5 1 9 16
