Abstract: This study investigated factors contributing to low performance of female pupils in physical science at Nsama Day Secondary School. A mixed-method approach was used involving questionnaires, interviews, and observations. Findings revealed inadequate laboratory facilities, negative attitudes, socio-cultural challenges, and ineffective teaching methods as key factors. Recommendations include improving resources, adopting learner-centered teaching, and promoting gender equity.
