Four research questions were raised and answered using mean ranking. The findings of the study revealed that the forms of truancy among upper basic students included truant behaviour resulting from dislike of subject teacher and repeated absence from school for a complete term among others. The causes of truancy were peer pressure and overpopulation among others. Consequences of truancy were found to include poor academic performance, student drop out and cultism among others. The discipline inculcated in students’ obedience to rules of school, attendance, punctuality and participation in school activities.
