ABSTRACT:This study was carried out to find out the factors militating against effective teaching and learning of mathematics in secondary schools in Uzo-Uwani local government area of Enugu state. There are five (5) research questions formulated to guide this study. There are eighteen (18) secondary schools in Uzo-Uwani local government area of Enugu state. Out of these secondary schools, ten (10) schools were randomly selected through ballot method. In each of the ten (10) schools selected for the study, two (2) classes of SSII were randomly selected using ballot method; this implies that 440 students were selected for the study. Also six (6) mathematics teachers were randomly selected in each schools used for the study through ballot method, this implies that sixty (60) mathematics teachers were used for the study. The questionnaire was used to collect and analyze the data. The instrument were validated by three (3) experienced mathematics lecturers and two (2) experts in measurement and evaluation all from the department of science and computer education of Enugu State of Science and technology (ESUT), and the test-retest method was used to determine the reliability of the instrument. The data collected from the students were analyzed using the mean respondents’ scores. The result showed that the factors militating against effective teaching and learning of mathematics in secondary schools are as follows; students have negative attitude towards the learning of mathematics, students in mathematics have very poor background, parents have negative attitude towards the learning of mathematics, the learning environment are not well conducive for learning, most of the mathematics teachers are not qualified. It also discussed the implication of the findings and finally recommendations were made to enhance students’ achievement in mathematics.
