Reliability was done by piloting through the split-half method. Quantitative data for the study was analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. All the correlation coefficients associated with the students participation rates parameters were fairly low but had statistical significance. The parameter dropout, had the highest Product-Moment of Correlation Coefficient (.654, p=.001) and repetition was at.370. The variable with least Product Moment Correlation Coefficients was retention [r=.310, p=.001. This study will help in decision making to the ministry of education and all other stakeholders in implementing policies that enhance students participation rates for quality education provision.
