Despite its importance, many secondary schools in Irepodun Local Government in Kwara State still face the challenges such as poor instructional strategies and low student motivation which hinder optimal performance in Business Studies.

The population of the study is made of the 47 junior secondary schools in Irepodun Local Government Area, Kwara State as at year 2026. A total of 43 schools were accredited by the regulatory body while 3 were not accredited because they are still at infancy stage. The sample consists of 20 Business Studies teachers purposively selected from the 46 Junior Secondary Schools in the study area. A self-designed questionnaire titled “Classroom Management and Academic Performance of Students Questionnaire” (CMAPSQ) was used to elicit useful information from the respondents. Two null hypotheses were postulated and regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses at .05 level of significance. The findings reveal that there is significant positive impact between classroom discipline (r=0.541); delegation of authority (r=0.593); and students’ academic performance in Business Studies in Irepodun Local Government Area, Kwara State, Nigeria. The study concluded that effective class management, use of classroom discipline and delegation are ways of enhance academic performance of Business Studies students in secondary school in the Irepodun Local Government Area of the state.
