- <p>The objective of this study was to investigate the overall time management between the Grade nine students at Secondary School A and Secondary School B, to determine the amount of time spent studying by the Grade nine students at Secondary School A and Secondary School B, and to establish a relationship between the time management of the Grade nine students at Secondary School A and Secondary School B. A pilot study was conducted at Secondary School C to construct a questionnaire and the Alpha Cronbach reliability test was done for each of the two factors for the questionnaire. A final questionnaire consisting of a four-point modified Likert Scale was prepared and circulated to the Grade Nine students at Secondary School A and Secondary School B. The population consists of two hundred and eleven Grade 9 students-one hundred and fifteen from Secondary School A and ninety-six from Secondary School B. Each of the four Grade nine classes at School A consists of twenty-four students and the five Grade nine classes at School B consists of approximately twenty-three students. The sample for the research consists of Grade nine classes from both public secondary schools. School A comprised of four Grade 9 classes and School B comprised of five. Three classes were randomly selected at both schools. The three classes from School A consisted of sixty-nine students and the three classes selected from School B consisted of sixty-five students. The three classes that were randomly selected at School A consisted of sixty-nine students and the three classes that were randomly selected at School B consisted of sixty-five students. At School B, the three Grade 9 classes that were randomly selected were Grade 9B, Grade 9C, and Grade 9D. At School A, the three Grade 9 classes that were randomly selected were Grade 9A, Grade 9C, and Grade 9D. Results indicated that the students at Secondary School A on average reported better time management skills in improving their end-of-term scores in Integrated Science when they manage their time more efficiently and that the students at School A on average reported better time studying skills than the students at Secondary School B. The T-test results further revealed that the difference in time management, time studying and overall time management between the Grade nine students at both secondary schools was statistically significant.</p>
