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.
