Abstract: The study investigated the formation of educational aspirations of day secondary school students. The Purpose of the study was to seek to interrogate the role of the family social capital in developing and shaping educational aspirations of day secondary school students considering that most day secondary schools students face challenges at home. Grounded theory research design was adopted, whereas qualitative data gathering and data analysis techniques were used. Twelve day secondary school students in one day secondary school were purposively sampled. Focus groups discussions were the tools of data collection. The study answers to the question: What is the social capital available to the learners at home to allow them set their own educational aspirations? The findings suggest that day secondary school students had low educational aspirations because the available social capital had not been able to help them form high educational aspirations. The study argues that day secondary school learners are the bulk of secondary school students and therefore their educational aspirations cannot be ignored. Listening to the FGD the researcher was able to deduce that social capital enhancement was a critical strategy that could facilitate the formation and development of high educational aspirations. The study recommends the need to put in place structured social educational programs, which could go a long way in providing interactional support for the families.
