dc.description.abstractAbstract One of the main objectives of secondary school education is the development of students both in character and learning. Thus, this should also form one of the basis for any policy related to school. Thus, this study investigated unified school uniform policy implementation and students’ conduct in Public secondary schools in Osun State. Two research questions, one main hypothesis and four operational hypotheses were formulated to guide the study. Descriptive research design was adopted to carry out the study. The population of this study comprise 7984 teachers in 397 public secondary schools in Osun State. The secondary schools were categorized into the three senatorial districts using stratified random sampling techniques. Proportionate sampling technique, using Research Advisor (2016) sample size determination table was adopted to select 106 teachers from Osun-west, 174 teachers from Osun-central and 90 teachers from Osun east senatorial districts respectively. The sample of the study was therefore 370 teachers in the state. A researcher-designed questionnaire (with reliability coefficient of the instrument is 0.75) was used for data collection. Percentage was used to answer the research questions while t-test was used to test the hypotheses formulated. The findings of the study include the following: students’ attendance, truancy, cultism and examination malpractice during unified policy implementation is just above average; students’ attendance, truancy, cultism and examination malpractice after unified policy implementation is just below average; there is significant difference between the students’’ conduct during and after the implementation of unified school uniform policy implementation; the disbursement of unique school uniforms to schools to serve the social demand of the populace; Marking of attendance should be given more priority and the observations should be followed up; and effort should be made by the school authorities to curb truancy among students. This is because truancy is rampant during and after the unified uniform policy implementation (though different). Keyword: unified school uniform, policy implementation; students’ conduct
