CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1     BACKGROUND
TO THE STUDY
          According to Oxford Advanced Learners’
Dictionary the home refers to a place where one lives, while environment refers
to surrounding or condition a person lives.
          The influence of the home environment
on the academic performance of pupils has recently been a point of concern of
both parents, teachers and educators. It has been given consideration because
of its importance on the scope of educational development of children. The home
environment is seen as one of the factors that influence the academic
performance of the children. Therefore, the home environment is given attention
with regards to the academic performance of the children.
This
study is based on the fact that the environmental factors influencing the
academic performances of children are highlighted, looked into, assessed and
proper recommendation made.
          The family background of the children
is given due consideration as it affects the children’s development. The nature
of child rearing, influences of both the peer group, playmates and family are
also considered.
          There are many problems associated
with children from different home background or environment and such problems
differ from one environment to another.
It
has been observed that children from poor background or illiterate home have
either the problem of not understanding or speaking English. Their interaction
with others is different they are always slow in understanding and mixing with
other children.
          In the case of children from educated
background there is progress in their academic performance because the home
environment is one of the best determinants of the child academic growth. On
the other hand, children from enlightened environment generally speak English
as soon as they start to talk. Their reaction to things is better.
          Therefore, the purpose of this study
is to bring into light what influences the home situation or environment has on
the academic performance of the children.
          It should be noted however, that this
case study is not meant to be of singular use either to the children concerned
or the teachers’ but is also hoped that it will open ways to other researcher s’
for the educational development of children in Ekiti- State.
