The present study was designed to investigate material management, teachers’ adequacy and learners’ motivation towards learning as determinants of UBE goals achievement. The study adopted the descriptive research design of survey type. A sample of 4,200 respondents were randomly selected from 280 public junior secondary schools. Material Management Questionnaire, Teachers’ Adequacy Questionnaire, Learners’ Motivation Questionnaire and Learners Academic Achievement Test were used for data collection r=0.8114, r=0.842, r=0.912 and KR20=0.942 respectively. Data collected were analysed using Means, Standard Deviation and Multiple Regression. Findings revealed that there was significant combined influence of material management, teachers’ adequacy and learners’ motivation towards learning (R=.228; R 2=.052; F(4,275)=3.787; p < 0.05), significant relative influence of learners’ motivation towards learning (β= .242; t= 3.723; p < 0.05), no significant differences in school location (rural and urban) on material management (F2, 113= 0.175; p > 0.05) and urban schools F2, 161= 0.527; p > 0.05), no significant differences in school location on teachers’ adequacy (F1, 114= 0.009; p > 0.05) and urban schools F1, 162= 3.670; p > 0.05) and there was significant differences in school location on learners’ motivation towards learning in the achievement of UBE goals (F1, 114= 2.745; p > 0.05 and F1, 162= 9.100; p < 0.05). The study concluded that material management, teachers’ adequacy and learners’ motivation towards learning are essential parts that can determine UBE Goals Achievement in public basic schools in Southwest, Nigeria. It was therefore recommended that government should provide necessary material (instructional and infrastructural), and ensure more qualified teachers are recruited to enhance effective teaching and learning to promote learners’ friendly environment.
