The main objective of the study was to establish the relationship between learner’s attitudes and
performance in science subjects based on age and gender. Cross-sectional research design was
adopted for the study. Schools were randomly drawn from Mbarara district in Uganda. This
gave a sample size of 300 form five and six secondary students. A questionnaire was used in
collecting data for the study. The data was analyzed using SPSS to generate Pearson’s Chi
Square test, Spearman Rank Correlation and bivariate to test the hypotheses of the study. The
