The study revealed that school resources do not predict the academic performance of students in the Gomoa East District. The study recommended that governments should allocate more funds for schools to acquire the physical facilities they need. In-service training programmes should also be initiated to address manpower needs as a result of changing times to enable teachers embrace new ways of teaching through the use and access to resources. Head teachers should involve all education stakeholders to aid in school development programmes and projects.
