Amelioration of the education system is one of the most intensive issue in Bangladesh. Likely most of the developing countries, in Bangladesh this actually plays an important role. Higher education in Bangladesh, faced a phenomenal growth in quantity of third ranked student from 1.12 million to 2.61 million within few years. But in terms of quality of education could not improve corresponding with this growth. In the necessity of improvement of education system and student's quality we were trying to propose a system to predict performance of a student, so that the necessary steps can be taken by the authority and the lacking’s can be filled up. In this is era of Data, datasets are producing from everywhere as in every institution. We also get a huge dataset from educational institutions and thus have so much of information. Using Data Mining techniques, we extracted some valuable information from the educational dataset and tried to build up a suitable model in the purpose of predicting student performance.
