Abstract
A comparative study of academic performance in Biology in some selected senior secondary school. Senior Secondary School Certificate Examination (SSCE) Biology in Public and Private Schools in Ogun State Nigeria from 2009 - 2010 was investigated. The ex-post factor comparative research design was employed in the study. The study covered the 3 education zones in Ogun State. A stratified random sampling technique was used to select 24 public and private junior secondary schools from urban and rural areas of Ogun State for the study. The result obtained showed that private schools in both urban and rural areas performed better than those in public schools. Similarly, male students in both private and public junior secondary schools outperformed their female counterparts. Majority 57.3% and 46.44% of the male students in private and public schools outperformed their female counterpart with 41.19% and 44.82%. It was recommended that students should be actively involved in the learning process and that the state government should provide opportunities for Biology teachers to attend seminars, and workshops to avail them the opportunity to facilitate science instruction in schools.
