Abstract
This study was about the effect of learning aids on the academic performance of
primary six pupils in social studies within Kasese sub county Kasese District,
Uganda. This was intended to determine the profile of respondents in the area of
study, determine the effects of learning aids towards the academic performance
of learners in the area of study and suggest possible remedies towards effective
use of learning aids so as to uplift the academic performance of pupils in Kasese
Sub County. In the course of study, all other people's contentions and ideas in
line with the topic under study were revisited and the whole study employed a
descriptive survey design. It was realized from the findings of the study that the
best way of teaching pupils is to provide them with adequate learning aids and a
conducive learning environment as well. A deduction was made that teachers
never prepared a variety of learning aids. This drove the researcher to make a
radical decision which called for more government support through its agencies
to see to it that all the necessary learning materials are in place within schools.
