The study established the influence of school language policy on pupils' performance in the English language in primary schools in Southern Division, the influence of the availability of teaching and learning resources on pupils' performance in the English language in primary schools in Southern Division, and the influence of evaluation Techniques on pupils' performance in the English language in primary schools in Southern Division.
