Primary education is a very important first step in shaping students' academic foundation, character and social skills. However, many problems still plague learning in primary schools. These include unconcentrated students, cheating behavior, lack of drive to learn, and psychosocial barriers and learning difficulties. The purpose of this study is to gain a more in-depth understanding of behaviors and barriers to learning in primary schools. This research was conducted qualitatively with a descriptive-analytical approach. The research used secondary data from scientific literature, previous research findings, academic books and policy documents. The results show that students' internal factors are not the only cause of learning problems; unvaried learning methods, limited availability of educational facilities, and lack of parental participation are other contributing factors.
