Abstract
Secondary School Students perspectives regarding four dimensions associated with Self Directed Learning (SDL) were collected through a Self Directed Learning Scale. This tool was prepared and standardized by the investigators. A total of 82 Secondary School Students provided input for revealing four emergent dimensions of SDL. Secondary Students acknowledged that, much of their studies and learning was within their control. In an effort to improve and empower the quality of students, the administrators should develop a student initiated forum for them to raise their suggestions and concerns about their own learning processes. Self directed learning was one of the important terminology related to the present educational system. Because the present world is full of information and knowledge everywhere and it is also very easily available too. In this world student must took initiative to grasp relevant information suitable for them. For that self direction and its different components plays an important role.
