Abstract
This study was done to investigate community class conflict on academic performance. The research used largely qualitative depending on actual observations of behavior and the qualitative analysis of data. Communal class is a personal matter that was not openly discussed by the subject. The researcher adopted the strategic sampling. This was where the population was divided into groups and random samples was taken from within each group bearing the populations as a whole. The research instruments which were mainly used were questionnaires, survey and school professional records. The most used instrument in this study is questionnaire. The researcher sought permission from relevant schools where letters were written to the heads of the instruction. The data collected was analyzed by using tables and pie chart. The researcher found out that children from low income families perform poorly in the high cost schools while the children from high cost income perform also poorly in low cost schools. One of the recommendations was that the ministry of education, science and technology should identify the problems faced by students experiencing communal class conflict and classify such children as special needs cases.
