Questionnaires titled – ‘Home and School Factors Questionnaire (HSFQ) (r = 0.81) and Students ’Motivation towards Learning Questionnaire (SMLQ) (r = 0.82) were used in collecting data. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical methods. Results showed low level of motivation towards learning (x=1.85) and low status of school facilities in term of school factors (x= 1.87). Furthermore, it revealed that home factor such as peer influence is moderate (x=2.70). Hypotheses showed a significant combined influence of home and school factors on motivation of students towards learning in secondary schools in Oyo town (F=6,1090) = 19441.4, p<0.05). Furthermore, Parenting style (Beta=.070, t= 3.074), peer influence (Beta=.017, t= 10.277), school facilities (Beta=.337, t = 13.503), parental involvement (Beta=.145, t=7.881) and interpersonal relationship (Beta=.261,t=9.877) have positive influence on students’ motivation towards learning. It can be concluded that low status of school facilities, moderate level of peer influence could be responsible for the low students’ motivation towards learning.
