Factors influencing the academic performance of underachieving learners in secondary schools with an inhibitive learning climateOgunbanjo, P. E. 11 1900 (has links)
Underachievement is a perennial problem in many secondary schools in South
Africa. One of the reasons for this state of affairs, is the inhibitive learning climate in
such schools. This study attempts to determine the extent and causes of the problem
and to develop guidelines for parents, teachers, learners and school management
teams to resolve some of the issues that cause the problem.
This is a qualitative study using focus group and individual interviews. The main
findings contributing to underachievement among learners, include lack of parental
guidance and supervision, negative attitudes of teachers towards learners, inflexible
teaching methods, overcrowded classrooms, lack of resources and facilities in
schools, lukewarm attitude of learners towards their work and the absence of positive
role models in communities.
The findings highlight important factors, which contribute to underachievement
among learners in an inhibitive learning climate. The recommendations are an attempt towards solving this important issue. / Educational Studies / M. Ed. (Special Needs Education)
