- Educational facilities such as school libraries, Instructional materials, adequate classrooms shelters, computer sets for teaching, practical materials, Internet /ICT facilities, projectors and Specimens as well as public address system which enables students with hearing problems to follow up in the lesson, promotes and facilitates effective teaching and learning processes, hence, any inadequacy in the provision and usage of any of these facilities would result to shallow academic performance of the students.
