A case study research design was adopted to study 23 pupils from primary five to primary six in a particular private school. A four-point Likert scale questionnaire enquiring on areas of disconnection in mathematics learning within the time frame of primary five to six having 10-items, and a mathematics achievement test having 20- items measured with four options multiple choice questions evaluating mastery of course content were the instruments used for data collection.
