The instruments used for this study were Biology Achievement Test (BAT ) with reliability value 0.83 and Biology Retention Test (BRT ) with reliability value 0.85 aimed at determining the achievement and retention of the students. After the data were collected; the research questions were tested with descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviation and the hypotheses were tested using inferential statistics i.e independent sample test (t-test). The finding of the study showed that the field trip method favoured the experimental group in Biology. The study further confirmed that field trip method favoured urban experimental group. One of the major recommendations made is that Government should make the use of field trip teaching method compulsory schools.
