Thirty learners, four principals, four educators who teach mathematics and the mathematics Head of Department in the schools were selected as participants in this research. A questionnaire (Appendix A) was handed out to principals, HOD’s, mathematics educators and learners doing mathematics in the four schools (4) selected for the study. The main findings of this study were: Mathematics teachers had an average of sixteen years of experience in the subject. Maths teachers do no pay much attention to slow learners. Learners are demotivated and need motivation to perform above average. Learners do not practice mathematics enough. Parental involvement is lacking in assisting learners with schoolwork let alone mathematics. Maths teachers are overloaded with work as in the schools researched one teacher would teach mathematics from Gr. 8 to 12.
