education field is growing, developing widely and becoming one of the most crucial industries. The data available in the
educational field can be studied using educational data mining so that the unseen knowledge can be obtained from it. In this
paper, various Data Mining approaches like Association mining and classification are used to predict the students’ performance
in examination in advance, so that necessary measures can be taken to improvise on their performance to score better marks.
The results obtained after the implementation may be useful for instructor as well as students. This work will help in taking
