Abstract: ABSTRACTThis study investigated the effect of teacher-mediation, mixed-sex play and gender-segregation on academic performance of Oyo State primary school pupils. This study adopted pre-test, post-test, control group, quasi experimental research design. One research hypothesis was generated to guide the conduct of the study and tested at 0.05 alpha level of significance. The population for the study consisted of all primary one pupils of Oyo state, Nigeria. All the primary one pupils of all the registered primary schools in the state; both public and private schools formed the population for the study.. A sample size 302 participants from sixteen (16) schools were selected for this study using simple random sampling technique. The study used a researcher self developed questionnaire on the achievement test instrument on pupils’ academic performance. The reliability of the instrument was ascertained by trial testing it on forty (40) primary one pupils outside the study sample. The data generated were analysed for reliability and internal consistency using Cronbach Alpha formular. The Standardized Alpha value of 0.82 was obtained. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) were used to analyse the hypothesis in the study. This was done to test differences that are more than two variables and to test interaction effects of variables. In other words, it also gave initial differences that existed among the groups. The result was also tested at 0.05 level of significance. The finding revealed that, the treatment is one of the major contributors to pupils’ academic performances, teacher-mediation in play, mixed-sex play and gender-segregation in play should be applied or adopted as instruments of improving primary school pupils academic performance, and that Gender-segregation also plays important roles on pupils academic performance. Based on the result of the findings, researcher gave the following recommendations among others that schools should provide positive productive stimulating learning environment where pupils feel comfortable and safe, satisfied with their teachers and derive joy and pleasure from learning which can facilitate better academic performance; availability of play equipment, facilities and playground should be made compulsory for both private and pubic schools so that engagement in co-curricular activities will positively influence the academic performance of the pupils; and teachers that will mediate in pupils play activities must develop a more critical understanding of what different forms of play mean to individuals and group of children and pursue knowledge of play as part of their professional development.
