Lateness to school started long ago, every where in a way
that cannot be controlled in recent time. The problem of lateness has eaten
deep into Nigeria children the problem of pupils lateness to school has now
turn to national problem. Lateness merely means arriving after expected time.
Children commonly miss their school or coming lately because
of their usual habits, such as waking up late due to laziness: rushing of
undone assignment, unprepared bath, breakfast or meals, clothes, their pack
lunch etc. and waiting for companions or friends coming to school the bus is
late; and sometimes because of some problems in their parent that affects them
and interest in coming to school seeing their with misunderstandings. A
financial support is another too. Kids like having many delightful possessions.
They would be and seeing their class mates with something they don’t have or
sometimes they are ashamed of coming to school.
Oxford advanced learners dictionary defined lateness as
arriving after the expected arrange or usual time. It is after the right,
fixed, usual or expected time; therefore lateness is the opposite of early. The
question now is what are the factors responsible for pupil’s lateness to
school.
