| Abstract: This study was titled “The Relationship between Learners’ Performance in English and Natural Science and Health Education: A case of Grade 7 learners at School A of Oluno Circuit. The study was fuelled by poor performance in NSHE which was allegedly attributed to English. Consequently, the study sought to answer the following research questions: How does the performance of Grade 7 learners in English at School A compare to that of Natural Science and Health Education? What is the relationship between the performance of Grade 7 learners in English and Natural Science and Health Education (NSHE) at School A? The findings of the study revealed that learners performed better in English than in NSHE. Also, in terms of the relationship between learners’ performance in English and NSHE the results showed that there was a strong positive correlation. Learners’ performance in NSHE can be explained by their performance in English up to 57%. It was concluded that the Grade 7 learners at School A performed better in English than in NSHE. A strong positive correlation was also concluded between learners’ performance in English and NSHE. The study recommended that English and NSHE teachers could share ideas on how to integrate language skills in their lessons in order to improve learners’ performance and promote cross curricular teaching. |
