From 2012-2015 academic sessions.\u00a0 The study is a correlational design and was guided by three research questions and one hypothesis. A total of 225 (141 females and 84 males) final year students who had completed the programme of study in Integrated science made up the population of the study. This population formed the purposive sample of the study. The instrument for data collection was the final academic board approved results of the college, mean scores and percentages were used to answer the research questions and \u01b5-test was used to test the hypothesis. The findings of the study among others are; there is a significant difference in the grade mean scores of the female and male students which are 48.7 and 47.7 respectively which implies that gender gap in performance in integrated science is disappearing. This is source of hope for the country and the world in general where gender disparity in performance is prominent.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Keywords:<\/b> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gender, integrated science, performance Nigeria certificate in Education, Male, Female<\/span><\/i><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-abab587 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"abab587\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3a9a5dc\" data-id=\"3a9a5dc\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2d7ecfe elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2d7ecfe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Impact statement\n<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f0d509a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f0d509a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The outcome of the research work indeed have changed the perception of an\u00a0 individual, family, NGO ,female children, male children and the government. The work is an eye\u2019s opener for all. Females will no longer see themselves as inferior in sharing ideas. Government will begin to involve females where critical problem need to be solved e.g. economic and security.Government will now see the need to increase the employment quota system in favour of\u00a0 female. Female children will now get enroll in some courses that involve critical thinking.Female can now be fixed in different parastatals where problems are to be solved.Male children will no longer see female children as inferior. Families having only female children will be encouraged seen that the female children can compete favourably with their male counterparts.
