of criminal, damage, robbery with violence and abusive conduct etc.
This study would therefore investigate
i. What truancy means.
ii. The causes of truancy.
iii. The effects of truancy on primary school pupils academic performance in mathematics.
iv. The possible solution to the problem.
1.3 RESEARCH QUESTIONS
(i) What is truancy?
(ii) What are the causes of truancy?
(iii) What are the effects of truancy on primary school pupils academic performance in mathematics.
(iv) How we can reduce truancy in primary school pupils?
1.4 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY
The study superficially find out
(i) To examine of truancy.
(ii) To explain causes of truancy.
(iii) To explain effects of truancy.
(iv) To suggest possible solution to the problem of this study.
1.5 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
The study would enable the various benefactor to have better
understanding of what used to prompt our primary school pupils on
truancy on school academic.
The study will be of benefit to
the government by given information on the high level of truancy in the
schools and it consequence effect. Government in a bid to curb truancy
will therefore be able to apply measures capable eradicating such acts.
One of the measures could be disciplinary measure approved by the
government e.g. Government backing schools in given out some punishment
to student such acts. Government could also pass some law banding on
school pupils and teachers to reduce truancy. Dedicated and intelligent
in schools could be motivated through various incentives e.g. money,
gift to make student who are truant change their attitude.
The study would assist parent to pay more attention to the activities of
the children in and outside schools for parent who pampered their
children and do not give room for correction they would have a change of
act to see the need for discipline on the children.
The
study will help the teacher to assist the pupils as much as possible to
develop interesting and the activity based on teaching method it will
also make her lesson in class interesting to the pupils. And also make
the use of availability of the instructional materials for the pupils to
enhance an effective teaching and learning process.
The study will help the pupils to be more serious about his or her
study. It will also use his free period to read more at home. It will
also identify the brilliant pupils in his class and make friend with
them so that they can teach him more or explain more of the unknown
topic to him. The study will make the pupils pay more attention to
education and work towards a great future.
