Abstract
Despite the introduction of determinants of pupils' performance, schools in Kenya have
been performing poorly in the Kenya Certificate of Primary Education examinations.
Both the schools and individual pupils have not yet accrued to the full benefits of FPE.
This study investigated the causes of poor academic performance among pupils in
selected schools within Keiyo South district, Kenya.
The study employed casual- comparative design that seeks to discover possible causes
and effects of behavior pattern or personal characteristics.
However a rise can be realized since the teachers are well qualified and the teaching
learning materials are there though inadequate. Pupils need to be encouraged to work
harder on their own supplement what they are taught by teachers. In addition the
teaching/learning resources need to be made adequate and the school needs general
improvement to be conducive to better learning.
