INTRODUCTION
BCKGROUND TO THE STUDY
Generally, it is believed that the major function of the school is to impart knowledge and intellectual discipline to students, while others argue that after school or extra-curricular activities are largely wastes of students’ time. Regardless, it is apparent that extra-curricular activities have become as much as a part of the students requirements as textbooks.
Anwana (1989) stated that extra-curricular activities are activities that is not within the school curriculum. There are many factors such as culture of a particular area, economic situations, socio-economic status of family that influence the type or nature of activities which students engage in after school and those which school leavers engage in before either entering the tertiary institutions choosing a vocation.
This research work therefore is mean to investigate the influence of extra-moral activities on academic performance of secondary school students in Effium Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.For example, students who join the Boys Scout movement, Girls Guide, Red Cross Societies, Youth Clubs, Drama and Debating clubs after school can benefit a lot from these group in terms of moral and spiritual development. Speaking before a group, getting along with people, that is cooperation and in social relationship and widening of their ideas will contribute a lot to their behaviour and academic performances.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Students’ period of extra-curricular activities in a school system after formal curricular activities should judiciously spent; and these will continue to be an increase in the rate of failure and fallen standard of education. It has also become their concern of the research to investigate into secondary school, why they really choose to enter into certain activities after certificate calluses. And also to examine the various activities registered by secondary school students after leaving school and before entering the university or choosing a job. Since a lot of the societal menace that have been registered during the “post SAP period” have been attributed to secondary school students.
