ABSTRACT

The study on the factors influencing indiscipline of students in selected secondary

factor that influences indiscipline in selected secondary schools, to assess the laxity of

administration influences indiscipline among students in selected secondary schools, to

dete1mine whether the welfare of students influences indiscipline in selected secondary

schools, to find out whether the quality of meals influences students indiscipline and to

find out whether the punishments can influence the indiscipline of students.

The research objectives were tested by means of questionnaires, documentation and

observation, the researcher discovered that most of the students were happy with the

welfare and meals that were provided at school because the food was not of good quality

and this makes them to be indisciplined.

Consequently, can be observed that if welfare, meals are not improved then indiscipline is bound to occur still.
