The specific objectives of the study were to investigate some reasons behind this poor performance.The methods used of data collection include questionnaires and interview guides to gather information on the academic performance in mathematics. Others were original computer printouts for the results of the students in the specified years of study.The research study recommended that the government should have a policy in place that encourages retaining teachers in upcountry schools, where the government should introduce upcountry allowances in the remunerations scheme of mathematics teachers.
