It was also fittingly agreed that most pupils of primary school perform poorly in their final examinations which is a requisite for gaining admission for studies in higher institutions.
Reasons have been advanced for this continual down ward trend in academic performance. These include poor and inadequate teaching, lack of proper motivation of teachers, inappropriate and inadequate instructional materials. Others include dwindling interest in education among pupils and corruption in the system.
A perplexing concern for education stakeholders in the present dispensation in Nigeria is the quality of school leavers. As it were, there are cases of primary school leavers who have been found not able to write clearly and express themselves meaningfully and intelligibly. Of most concern to stakeholders too is the poor performance of pupils in the Common EntranceExaminations,many primary school leavers cannot gain admission to institutions of higher learning owing to poor results. They even could not fit in appropriately as they become overwhelmed by the elaborate and intense workload.
The result of this trend of poor performance is quite diverse. Beside inability to gain entry into institutions of higher learning, there is the danger to a society with young people who are ill-educated; unfit and unqualified. The consequences of this are quite dire for a society or nation that is evolving.
