It was based on the following objectives; to establish the relationship between the uses of Vernacular Speaking on upper primary school pupils and academic performance in upper primary in Buyanja Sub County, Rukungiri District, to find out the challenges faced in teaching and learning using vernacular primary schools in Buyanja Sub County, Rukungiri District. to establish the solutions to the challenges faced in using Vernacular in teaching and learning in Upper classes. The study used a sample size of 78 respondents, which included teachers, head teachers, and pupils. The study used questionnaires and interviews to collect data. From the findings, the research found that; Teachers agreed that the local language contributes positively towards the acquisition of the English language and that the local Language boosts children's self-esteem and confidence. Combining vernacular and English produces the best performance in the English language among primary children. The majority of primary teachers and Headteachers have a negative attitude toward the use of the local language as a language of instruction.
