There is a general trend for Ethnic Fijian students to underachieve in science and science-related subjects as compared to Indo-Fijian students at all school levels in Fiji. The trend creates feelings and thoughts amongst people that Ethnic Fijians are not academically as able as other races in Fiji. The questions which may direct most people to ask are: Why are Ethnic Fijians not doing so well in science when compared to other races? Do they tend to find the subject difficult or do they tend simply not to find it pertinent or interesting? Either way, what are the reasons? Is their under-achievement related to the teaching of the subject at school? Is it related to their cultural upbringing? Do they have negative or positive perceptions of the value of schooling? If so, why do they have the perceptions they do? Can the situation be improved? If so, in what ways?
