ABSTRACT The study investigated home environmental, school, and teacher factors that had accounted for low BECE performance in Akpafu Odomi JHS, in the Hohoe Municipality of the Volta Region. The study employed a descriptive survey design. Also, stratified and simple random sampling techniques were used to select 61 teachers, students and parents who participated in the study. The instrument used for data collection was a questionnaire. Questionnaires were designed for all three categories of participants. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics such as frequency distribution and percentages. The Study found that parents in the Akpafu Odomi communities engaged their wards in petty trading and farming activities after school which prevented them from studying. Again, it came out from the study that basic schools in the area lacked library facilities. It was, therefore recommended that parents must refrain from engaging student in farming activities and petty trading after school and rather encouraged them to study at home. In the same vein, schools must desist from using students to do menial work during instructional hours in the name of generating income for the school. Also, Stakeholders of education must build libraries in the communities as well as the schools in order to ensure that students have a place to do their private studies.
