Poor academic performance has been observed in school subjects especially Mathematics and English language among primary school pupils (Adesemowo, 2005). Aremu (2000) stresses that academic failure is not only frustrating to the pupils and the parents, its effects are equally grave on the society in terms of dearth of manpower in all spheres of the economy and politics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Education at primary school level is supposed to be the bedrock and the foundation towards higher knowledge in tertiary institutions. It is an investment as well as an instrument that can be used to achieve a more rapid economic, social, political, technological, scientific and cultural development in the country. The National Policy on Education (2004) stipulated that primary education is an instrument for national development that fosters the worth and development of the individual for further education and development, general development of the society and equality of educational opportunities to all Nigerian children irrespective of any real or marginal disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The role of primary education is to lay the foundation for further education and if a good foundation is laid at this level, there are likely to be no problem at subsequent levels. However, different people at different times have passed the blame of poor performance in primary school to pupils because of their low retention, parental factors, association with wrong peers, low achievement, low retention, and the likes (Aremu & Sokan, 2003; Aremu & Oluwole 2001; Aremu, 2000).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Morakinyo (2003) believe that the falling level of academic achievement is attributable to teacher\u20ac\u2122s non-use of verbal reinforcement strategy. Others found out that the attitude of some teachers to their job is reflected in their poor attendance to lessons, lateness to school, unsavory comments about pupil\u20ac\u2122s performance that could damage their ego, poor method of teaching and the likes affect pupils\u20ac\u2122 academic performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The question therefore is what is the cause of this fallen standard and poor academic performance of pupils? Is the fault entirely that of teachers or pupils or both of them? Is it that pupils of today are non achievers because they have low intelligent quotient and a good neutral mechanism to be able to act purposefully, think rationally and deal effectively with academic tasks? Or of is it because teachers are no longer putting in much commitment as before? Or is it in teachers\u20ac\u2122 method of teaching and interaction with pupils? Or is the poor performance of pupils caused by parents\u20ac\u2122 perception of the causes of poor academic performance among primary school students in Nigeria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.2 Statement of problem<\/p>\n\n\n\n The differential scholastic achievement of students in Nigeria has been and still a source of concern and research interest to educators, government and parents. This is so because of the great importance that education has on the national development of the country. All over the country, there is a consensus of opinion about the fallen standard of education in Nigeria (Adebule, 2004). Parents and government are in total agreement that their huge investment on education is not yielding the desired dividend. Teachers also complain of student\u20ac\u2122s low performance at both internal and external examination. This problem are attributed to poor foundation from primary school due to poor teaching standards as well as other factors such poor funding of education by government as well as negligence by parents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is against this constraints that the researcher sees the subject matter as an empirical problem worthy of investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.3 Objectives of the Study<\/p>\n\n\n\n The central objective of the study is to assess the factors responsible for the poor academic performance in public primary schools. The specific objectives are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n i. Ascertain environmental factors as causes of poor academic performance of pupils in primary schools in Zing lga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ii. Examine teachers factors as causes of poor academic performance of pupils in primary schools in Zing lga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n iii. Determine the attitudes of pupils as causes of poor academic performance of pupils in primary schools in Zing lga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n iv. Find out attitudes of parent as causes of pupils poor academic performance in primary schools in Zing lga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.4 Research questions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n i. What are environmental factors that serve as causes of poor academic performance of pupils in primary schools in Zing lga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ii. What are teachers factors that cause of poor academic performance of pupils in primary schools in Zing lga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n iii. What are the attitudes of pupils that cause of poor academic performance of pupils in primary schools in Zing lga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n iv. What attitudes of parents cause of pupils poor academic performance in primary schools in Zing lga.<\/p>\n\n\n\n 1.5 Research hypothesis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n H0: Environmental factors and parental attitudes does not have a significant effect on pupils academic performance in primary schools<\/p>\n\n\n\n H1: Environmental factors and parental attitudes have a significant effect on pupils academic performance in primary schools<\/p>\n\n\n\n HOW TO RECEIVE PROJECT MATERIAL(S)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n After paying the appropriate amount (#5,000) into our bank Account below, send the following information to<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 08068231953 or 08168759420<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n (1) Your project topics<\/p>\n\n\n\n (2) Email Address<\/p>\n\n\n\n (3) Payment Name<\/p>\n\n\n\n (4) Teller Number<\/p>\n\n\n\n We will send your material(s) after we receive bank alert<\/p>\n\n\n\n BANK ACCOUNTS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Account Name: AMUTAH DANIEL CHUKWUDI<\/p>\n\n\n\n Account Number: 0046579864<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bank: GTBank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n OR<\/p>\n\n\n\n Account Name: AMUTAH DANIEL CHUKWUDI<\/p>\n\n\n\n Account Number: 3139283609<\/p>\n\n\n\n Bank: FIRST BANK<\/p>\n\n\n\n FOR MORE INFORMATION, CALL:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 08068231953 or 08168759420<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n AFFILIATE LINKS:<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n myeasyproject.com.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectmaterials.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectmaterials.net.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectsmaterials.net.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectsmaterial.net.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n easyprojectmaterial.net.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n projectmaterials.com.ng<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
