Teachers' Attitude Towards Academic Performance Of Learners With Learning Difficulties In Kibwezi Division Kibwezi District Kenya

ABSTRACT

It is apparently true that learners with learning difficulties range for mild to

profound levels. The later is highly noticeable because of the extreme poor

performance in exams, however, majority of the learners with learning difficulties

drop out from school as a result of pressure from their peer groups aggressive

parents and more so adamant teachers who humiliate and force them to repeat

same class year after the other.

Since this has been the trend in most of the primary schools in Kibwezi Division

Kibwezi District, the teachers will read the research and realize the academic

havoc they cause to the learners with learning difficulties and at the same time

cultivate a positive response when handling them.
