    • The purpose of this study was to find out, examine and investigate some of the deviant behaviour common in some selected secondary schools students in Oredo Local Government Area of Edo state and how they can be eradicated or minimized.

      The information contained in this project work is the result of my personal observation, oral interview and with administered questionnaire to personnel, mostly teachers, parents and students of selected schools.

      The result of my findings should that the commonest deviant behaviour are assault and insult of both teachers and parents, uses of charm, dishonesty, disobedience, drug offences, gambling, fighting, mass demonstration, sex offence, stealing, truancy, wickedness and indiscipline. This is as a result of influences, poor school physical condition, poor environment, bad peer groups, lack of poor school materials such as textbooks and seats, trace was also made to children from broken homes, poor family background and children keeping bad companies with peer groups.

      To each of these problems a solution has been suggested. If these suggestions are applied by parents, guidance and teachers and the problems of deviant behaviour will be reduce drastically in the country and in the selected schools in Oredo Local Government Area of Edo State.
