The study identified and categorized numerous educational problems ranging from environmental (infrastructural decay and classroom climate) to political (poor funding, inappropriate curriculum, and politicization of teacher recruitment) as factors affecting the teaching and learning of students negatively. It uses primary and secondary data to ascertain the various factors attributed to the declining effect of teaching and learning in secondary schools. The study also recommended that the government should adequately fund the educational sector and provide enough statutory allocation to secondary schools, embark on infrastructural development, review the educational curriculum to align with students' aspirations and conduct teacher recruitment based on merit and academic qualification to improve the quality of the teaching and learning of students in GSS.</p>
