Abstract

Students especially those studying English Language in most Schools fail in this subject area due to some reasons. Such reasons include the attitudes of their parents, teachers, students themselves, the people in the society and the government at times.

While the learning failure rate is disturbing, it brings about serious concern to most parents and education state holders. Apart from academic disturbance which students that fail the subject face in terms of progress to higher institutions, incompetency in English language undoubtedly affect the expressions of students in this official language in their endeavours.

The study therefore examined the role of parents, education stake holders and students toward the poor attitude of students in this language with the hope that recommendations towards solving the problems of academic laxity will be proffered.
