ABSTRACT
The study set out to determine the relationship between mc4ivthon and
academic performance of students: of Owimbi zone in Rarieda district
Kenya. A number of schools were motivating their teachers and students
to stimulate the performance in National Examinations. Despite this, the
performances of some schools in national exanimations were extremely
very poor.The research information was on the characterized personal
information of the teachers, subjects taught and grade attained. The
school previous performance, types of motivation offered by- the
schoolmanagement and suggestions on how to enhance motivations in
schools.Data for the study was obtained through structured interview,
questionnaires and observations were used to gather information and
how they influenced performance in the school. A sample population of
10 teachers and RU students were investigated. The survey led to certain
conclusions first teachers; experiencing teaching and long stay in the
school was a strong factor for the teacher to enable them to perform well
in their work.
There were still no quality passes: at national examination nth most of
the students obtaining B plain. This could not enable the students to
pursue quality courses at the university or a middle . level college.
Subjects in which students obtained high/ better grades were taught by
experienced teachers and to some extent these teachers had a kind of
motivation for good performance. So in a way, motivation contributed to
good performance to some extent percentage. There was little government
participation in the motivation of teachers; the bulk work of motivating
the teachers was left to parents who were already overburdened by
school fees. Since they started appreciating the effort of teachers and
students by motivating than, the schools mean grade improved
progressively. This means that motivation contributed to good
performance. Based on foregoing conclusion, certain recommendationsi
were presented. First, the government through the ministry of education
should take an active part in teachers through the provision of staff
houses. This would enable the teacher to participate fully in his work
without the worry of traveling home. Teachers Service Commission (T.S.
C) should develop a scheme of promotion on value added. This would
make teachers to be sure of what they expect when they perform well in
their job. A teacher joining the school should be properly oriented on
motivation policy. This would make the teacher to adapt well to the
school system. Lastly, cash award has an immediate impact on teachers
than any form of incentives, it should therefore b considered most
popular motivations among teachers.
