description The student's performance plays an important role in producing the best quality graduate who will responsible for the country's economic growth and social de-velopment. Labor market also concern with student's performance because the fresh graduate students are considered as an employee depends on their academic performance. So, identification the reason behind student’s performance variation provides a valuable information for planning education and policies. Many researchers try to find out the reason with different types of data mining approaches in different countries. But none of them worked with Bangladeshi students. This paper proposed a model for identifying the key factors of variation Bangladeshi students’ academic performance and predicts their results. This paper proposes a model which able to identify the students who need special attention.
