The target population was students in secondary school students of Kolkata. 540 students were taken from the target population through simple random sampling. The results showed us that first, we find that only 37% of the students have a high level of using the internet, which has a higher impact on learning, and 28% very low level of using the internet on the internet. A higher percentage of scores lying above M±1 SD is expected. The Means and Standard Deviation for the scores in each variable are presented one by one after this initial summary.

Second, there is a significant difference between the impacts of internet on secondary school students due to family income. It was recommended that families should access education to encourage their children in schools. Moreover, socioeconomic policies should be formulated to enable children from low economic status to have equal opportunities as children from high economic parents to maintain harmony among children in the nation.
