    This study investigates the Effect of Inductive and Deductive Teaching Strategies on Senior Secondary School Students’ Academic Achievement in Further Mathematics in Oyo State.Three hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance. A pretest–posttest quasi–experimental design was applied. Multistage sampling procedure was adopted to purposively select threeSchools of Science for the study from the three senatorial districts in Oyo state. A sample size of 108 participants comprises 50 male students and 58 female students were involved in the study. Differential and Integral Calculus Achievement Test (DICAT)(KR20=0.84) was used as instrument for data collection. Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) was used for data analysis. There was a significant main effect of Deductive Teaching Strategy on Senior Secondary School Students’ Academic Achievement in Further Mathematics [F(1, 63)=11.321, P<0.05]. There was a significant interaction effect of Inductive and Deductive Teaching Strategies on Senior Secondary School Students' Academic Achievement in Further Mathematics [F(2,104)=10.128, P<0.05]. From the results, it is concluded that the most effective and preferred teaching strategy is the Deductive Teaching Strategy. Base on the findings, it is suggested that application of Deductive Teaching Strategy or Combined Inductive and Deductive Teaching Strategies should be considered to improve students’ academic achievement in Further Mathematics.
