This study looked into the influence of the teacher-student relationship on secondary school economics students’ learning outcomes. The study population comprised of 678 senior secondary two (SS2) students from the Awka-south LGA in Anambra state, Nigeria who were studying economics. A total of 110 SS2 students from public secondary schools served as the study's sample. Five research questions led the study, which were examined using descriptive and inferential statistics. The SS2 students showed higher levels of teacher-student relationship in economics, and, both male and female students establish excellent relationships with their teachers. Learning outcome in economics was quite high, as 92 students scored between 69 and 100 percent. The teacher-student relationship and learning outcomes are found to be related. Based on their findings, the researchers suggested that only teachers with a valid teaching qualification in economics and have passion for teaching be hired to teach the subject in secondary schools.
