    ABTRACT
    This study investigates the causes of truancy among
    Secondary Schools Students in Ejigbo Local Government Area.
    The purpose of this investigation is to make an objective and
    clear study into the causes and effects of truancy on students’
    academic performance and also provide useful solution/remedies
    to the problem.
    The method used in data collection was questionnaire which
    was validated by the supervisor. A total number of hundred (100)
    students from four (4) different Secondary Schools in Ejigbo Local
    Government Area were used.
    The result of the analysis of data showed clearly that the
    negative attitude of students to learning has a great negative
    impact on the performance of the students.
    The investigation has also shown that negative attitude of
    students to learning has been as a result of the lack of
    seriousness on the part of students and the attitude of parents
    towards the academic progress of their wards.
    Suggestions have been offered from this study on the steps
    that could be taken to reduce truancy among secondary schools
    students in order to amend the poor academic performance of
    students.
