Specifically, the study examined factors at pupils’ level that influence regular and nomadic primary school pupil’s academic performance. Next assessed factors at parents level that influence regular and nomadic primary school pupil’s academic performance. Furthermore, the study identified factors at teachers level that influence regular and nomadic primary schools pupil’s academic performance, and examined factors at school level that influence regular and nomadic primary schools pupils’ academic performance, and finally, the study examined factors at local government level that influence regular and nomadic primary schools pupil’s academic performance, and described at state government level factors that influence regular and nomadic primary school pupil’s academic performance. The study adopted a cross-sectional research design. Pupils, parents, and teachers were randomly selected, while school administrators were selected purposively. T-test and descriptive statistics (chi-square, frequencies and percentages) were used to analyse and interpret data obtained from respondents. The study found that regular primary schools pupils’ performed better than their counterparts in nomadic primary schools. The study recommends among others that, the local government in Taraba State should collaborate with regular and nomadic primary school administrators and mount seminars to parents on the value of education particularly in nomadic primary schools. Provide schools with adequate classrooms, buildings, chairs, desks, tables, chalkboards, textbooks, among many others for effective teaching and learning. The local government too should pay allowances to teachers, employ qualified teachers, particularly in nomadic schools, and improve teachers’ welfare.enPupils’ Academic PerformanceNomadic primary schoolsSchool FacilitiesTeachers’ welfare improvementThesis
