Three Hundred and Thirty-Five (335) SSII Secondary School Student constituted the samples of the study. They were selected by a proportionate sampling technique. A structured questionnaire titled Students’ Attitude towards Biology Questionnaire on a5-point scale was used to collect the data Overall results of the study revealed that the mean score of students was 85. Differences between the attitudes of male and female students were significantly insignificant. The results also showed that there was a significant difference between the attitude of science and art students. The results also showed that there was a significant difference between the attitude of public and private students. The study also shows that majority of pupils in Kebbi have positive attitudes towards Biology. Since the majority of the students indicated that provision of adequate teaching aids influences their attitudes, it is recommended that educational material should be provided in the schools. Students should be engaged in practical work, and extra lessons should be organized for students with negative attitudes towards Biology.
